I think Skip got overwhelmed by the project and from what I could tell he has another one (not he same kind of truck) that he will be bringing home from a relative. I assume his wife and neighbors were very happy to see this one go also. It sure cost me a fortune getting back to Washington with the price of ferry fares.
I am having serious thoughts that I did not make the right decision to pick it up. There is alot of rust in the usual places and it has some tears in the metal behind the cab. I am going to have a hard time hiding this on my property
Skip is a very nice guy and I enjoyed talking with him for the short time I was up there. It turns out that we were both inclined to make a pickup truck out of the COE. The Bed of the truck is in great condition so that is a good find. The cab is a pretty rare 5 window gmc.
