Radial tires wore evenly with more than 50% tread, original hub caps and often missing spare (on bracket) included. New Monroe air shocks Owned for years and, very reliable, used for occasional run around. Salvage title, Not sure why as I can find no body/mechanical damage but may be due to past engine issue for salvage title status? Past owner says he installed a 60k Jetta engine, no papers but runs great to verify as correct. Very solid driver, rust free Ca. truck. Rear bumper not included unless bid hits over $5k. This is not a repaint & hide issues like many older vehicles on the market. Will come with (included free) additional diesel 5 speed transmision(desirable freeway 5th gear) This is a very original, solid and as far as I've been able to see rust free, California truck. Registered to date, pink slip in hand. It starts, shifts, stops and drives solid. Has been a very solid truck. Keep in mind it is a 36 year old vehicle. ANY questions Please ask, I'll respond ASAP. $500 NON refundable PayPal deposit required (will subtract off of sale price) within 48 hrs of winning bid. This is to eliminated the looky lou's. I will work with buyer on your arranged shipping. Open to buy it now offers, I can ad a buy it now @ a $6k offer. Starting bids at $3450 Happy bidding. NOTE: ebay would not except my 1981 VIN so I was forced to put it as 1980. THIS TRUCK IS A (EARLY?) 1981 MODEL On Nov-07-16 at 16:37:36 PST, seller added the following information: additional info. not noted previously: Tan interior is very original, unrestored and clean. Dash has dash cover. Seats and other typical wear items have been taken care of and not abused. This is 36 year old, not a brand new $40k truck but the "survivor" condition shows very well for its age. New radiator and misc. engine cooling hoses recently replaced, new thermostat along with other cooling system misc. mentioned above. New shifter linkage bushing kit and (N.O.S.) lower steering shaft bearing (Always worn or partly missing AND no longer available new part!) As mentioned above free, ADDITIONAL 5 speed transmission included presently I will include free, 4 ADDITIONAL spare stock rims with very nice tires (well over 50% tread). Included free when when bidding goes over $5k or "buy it now @ $6k".
