Mechanically, it's in great shape, but the bodywork needs some help. I figured reliability was more important for my peace of mind when my teenage daughter will be driving it. I also expected a few dents and dings to happen.

She's already put one set of dings in, but now she's learning about fender repair and bodywork. She already has a good working knowledge of wrenching and basic auto mechanics. I wanted her to be able to fix most anything short of a blown head gasket while out on the road.

I see a lot of 60's trucks in the Sacramento area. The Valley Sun/Dry Heat are good for them. They don't rot like on the coast or the snow country.

Why? Its always sunny and dry on the coast!
