Gasoline

Truck is all stock, I do have all the stock emblems for the truck and do have the bed rails for the back of the bed of the truck. The window has a nickel size rock hit in it. I bought this truck because I knew what was wrong with it when I bought and fixed it.The truck was running on five cylinders when I bought it and was blowing smoke. It had a bad push rod. We fixed it replaced all the spark plugs, plug wires, cap and rotor, changed the oil and have straight 40w oil in it now, I bought a brand new battery for the truck. Truck does not blow out smoke anymore and is not fowling out the sparks plugs any more and runs on all six cylinders. The brakes are good so I never had to mess with them. I do not know what gears are in the rear end but the truck can get up out of its own way. I have removed and pounded out a lot of the dents on the bed. Some one had covered all the dents with huge amounts of bondo. I have removed most of the bondo in the bed of the truck and now the fenders look like fenders. Luckily it is a dry climate out here in Vegas so I do not have to worry about the exposed metal. When removing the bondo I have found small quarters size wholes in the metal and old school brass metal to cover old damage. I have not started body work on the cab of the truck. Somebody was king Krylon with cab of the truck. This is a project truck that runs good. I am selling the truck because I would like to work on an older vehicle (40-50's). This truck is not old enough for me. I got this truck from a dodge collector because I needed a project. Now I am stuck in the middle and if I am gonna go full steam on a project I want it to be something older. This is a good solid truck. It needs a paint job, seat covers, side mirrors, and some love. I do know that there is not that many of these trucks around and most of them have been all cut up already. This one has not been all cut up. It still has the single barrel carb on it. Truck is also listed here locally for sale and I reserve the right to cancel the auction at any time. Message me with any questions.
