Needs some carb work. Drove it home, had to stop and buy wiper blades as they were long gone. Cold and rainy & no heater, as usual the controls are broken.
Drove out pretty good. It has new rims with radial tires. Tires are fair. Has a nice metal bed with a tool box under it. It came with a Kohler 7,000 watt generator in the tool box. Guy I bought it from said it ran fine when he pulled it out of his motorhome. No gas or battery for it. He was going to hook it up to use it then changed his mind but did not want to take it out again. I will have to check it out.
Good glass, some rust but not too bad I think. Right front fender has a pretty good dent in it. But all in all I'm happy. He said it was a state or county truck sometime in it's life. You could tell as it has had a beacon on the cab and some other items. Found some stickers that showed it had a new utility body placed on it in 1988.
I could see where the equipment that was on it had been cut off. Still has the nice bed on it. All in all 600.00 dollars. I will add pics soon. It was raining and getting dark when I got home. They stuck a 1964-66 pickup grille on it. That looks kind of funny. Grille is in good shape if anyone has a 1962 truck grille they want to trade for. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2006 Posts: 162 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Feb 2006 Posts: 162 | Congrats! enjoy your new 'bolt!

Looks like that bed is heavy duty. Once you find the right grille for it, you'll have it made. | | |
