This is an awesome truck. Gets lots of attention cruising around town. I drive it around town, local cruises, and to play golf occasionally. It was shipped to NY from Prescott Valley, Arizona a few years ago. You can verify by looking at the DSO code on the door VIN tag - It's the district that ordered the truck - 75 Phoenix. This is not a restored truck - no body work, no filler, etc. Underside is extremely nice as is the frame and the rest of the body. It looks to have had the paint touched up in spots due to the western desert sun fade. There are a few dings. There is a spot of surface rust on the left rear wheel arch. New 31x10.5R15 tires and rims. 2 gas tanks - one behind seat and other under bead controlled by a toggle switch on the dash. Both work. The interior has been refurbished. The seat is an original NOS seat bought by the previous owner, new carpet, door panels, head liner, and a dash cover. It also has a sliding rear window. I installed new Mile Marker lockout hubs and they work fantastic - 4L/4H work perfect. The 4 speed shifts fine - what you would expect from a tough old truck. Power brakes work good. Power steering has a bit of play, but this is normal for these old trucks with oversize tires.' Has factory 4:11 gears. The tranny is the hard to find 4 speed with granny low. The motor is the original 351M. The lower end is noisy and probably needs rebuilt after 38 years - just the short block, everything else has been redone. I had the heads redone, new water pump, installed a Edelbrock intake, Holley 600 carb, headers, and new exhaust. There is some oil seeping in a couple spots around back of motor/tranny, but it's an fairly unmolested 37 year old truck.
