Still have the hood ornament. Took it off a while before I towed it (seemed like something that could be easily stolen) I was a bit surprised that it hadn't been taken the two phillips screws removed live they were new.I remember lots of ride (and sitting on my dad's lap steering while driving down the road.It was a 2 tone blue interior and just an old (12-15 year old truck) at the time but now seems pretty cool. My son is 13 and we are going to put it back together mostly stock. probably radial tires on stock or stock looking tubeless rims a rebuilt stock appearing seat(bettter padding and material in the stock color scheme. We will paint it as original (no fancy show quality stuff) and we will retain the dealer installed barden bumper. Might not be perfect but they weren't perfect when new and it's a truck.
