Moving Sale - or "Moved Sale" I bought this truck in Fresno, Ca 2 years ago, and drove it around San Diego for over a year before moving to GA. Now reluctantly have to sell. The customizing was completed before me and appears to be about 10 years old. The art work is fantastic but the body does have some minor paint dings here and there. When I bought it, It looked fantastic as it does now - but didn't run as well. I changed the old manual points to electronic ignition, provided new generator, starter, water pump, hoses, belts, fluids, air cleaner and some new wiring, battery, regulators, etc. Now runs like a charm. It has 4 wheel drum brakes, runs straight, stops straight. Manual steering, original style heater, original suspension (appears to have a slight lowering in front), air shocks in the back. Electric windows, buckets from a late model ford covered in cloth and leather (there are electrical controls for the seats - but they have not been wried), custom inside paint and interior including console and B&M shifter. Redone headliner and door panels. All interior appears to be about 10 years old I believe the engine and transmission to be original, but am not sure. Though appear original, runs very well - not tired. exhaust sounds great, not too loud, not too quiet, and there is no better sound than the 4 barrel edelbrock opening up when you push the pedal down. Though custom, it could easily be returned to stock if desired. Originally a classic red and white 2 tone. However, as custom, it currently draws a crowd of admirers wherever I go. New front tires and a spare with included american racing matching rim. The vacuum windshield wipers work, gages work including the new ones for temp, oil pressure, tach and generator. The radio works - but has no antennae so very bad reception. Chrome has not been redone, but is not all that bad. I have enjoyed this truck and wish I did not have to sell. I removed a tired looking cover from the bed and was in the middle of refinishing - but now have to sell. The biggest issue I can relate is the small surface rust bubbles on the roof at the drip rails - which have been there since I bought the truck. It helps that these items are not in the art work paint and body shop says looks like an easy match job. Mileage is un certain may have flipped a few times since new. No warranties - It can be shipped in US at your expense or local pick-up. Thanks for viewing - good luck bidding. (Revised/ added 8 6 2014: does not burn oil, has 12 volt alternator - not generator as mentioned above, lighter in dash was disconnected due to short. Other items replaced after my initial purchase: coil, ignition switch)
