HE PRIMARLY USED' AS HIS CAMPING & HUNTING TRUCK FOR AS LONG AS I CAN REMEMBER. AN ATTEMPT TO RESTORE BUT NOT FOREFILLED.THE TRUCK ITSELF IS NOT IN BAD SHAPE. IT DOES HAVE A FEW AREAS THAT NEED ATTENTION ' AFTER TAKING A CLOSER LOOK. A RUST AREA ON THE DRIVERS REAR BACK PANEL NEAR THE EDGE & ONE CHROME PIECE MISSING SAME AREA. AND A SMALL DENT & HOLE ON TOP OF THE HOOD, LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE TRIED TO PATCH IT UP" IT'S BEEN THERE SINCE HE HAD IT.THE WINDSHIELD DOES HAVE SMALL ARC CRACK NEAR THE BASE' IT'S BEEN THERE AS LONG AS I CAN REMEMBER.HE WASN'T GOING TO REPLACE IT SINCE IT WAS SMALL AND NOT A DISTRACTION.I HELP HIM A WHILE BACK IN REMOVING THE HEADLINER' HE ORDERED ONE' SOMEHOW GOT LOST IN TRANSIT' BUT THEY SAID IT WAS DELIVERED?THE INTERIOR IS SURPRISELY IN GOOD SHAPE AND LOOKS WELL. HE DID INSTALL A AFTER MARKET RADIO IN IT. NOT THE BEST' BUT EAR ENTERTAINING AT MOST.IT HAS A FULL SIZE CANOPY AND A BEDLINERTHE TRANSMISSION HAD A COMPLETE OVERHAUL BY 'GENERAL TRANSMISSION' IN SEATTLE.THE TRUCK WAS GIVEN' 4 BRAND NEW 'GOODYEAR WRANGERS-SIZE 31 X 11.50 - R 15 LT - M+S WITH MAG WHEELS..THERE IS STILL ALOT OF THREAD ON THESE BIG TIRES' SPENDY I THOUGHT AT THE TIME. SINCE THE TIRES' HE PUT ON A COUPLE OF METAL STEP UPS ON THE TRUCK, AT A YOUNG AGE, BROTHER AND I HAD TROUBLE GETTING IN.THE TRUCK HAS BEEN SITTING AROUND FOR QUITE AWHILE' DIDN'T KNOW WHAT I WAS GOING TO DO WITH IT. TOOK IT CAMPING A FEW TIMES' DIDN'T HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH IT. I DON'T HAVE THAT MUCH TIME ANYMORE IN USING IT' YOU CAN ONLY HAVE SO MANY VEHICLES' SLOWLY GETTING OVER THE DEPARTURE OF MY STEP DAD' I THINK THE MEMORIES HAVE SUBSIDED ENOUGH AND ITS TIME FOR THE TRUCK TO MOVE ON TO A NEW OWNER.IT'S PRETTY DIRTY ON THE OUTSIDE' WINTER AND ALL' IT'S BEEN RAINING CATS AND DOGS AGAIN IN SEATTLE' NEVER SEEM TO GET THE TIME TO WASH IT. IT DOES CLEAN UP WELL. BUT IT WILL NEED A GOOD SCRUBBING.360-V8 A STRONG MOTOR' LIKE I SAID DON'T USE IT MUCH ANYMORE' BUT ONCE IT'S STARTED IT'S HEALTHY AND READY TO GO. I GAVE IT A NEW BATTERY' I DISCONNECT IT AS IT IS NOW' WHEN NOT IN USE. I HAD A GENTLEMAN THAT TOOK IT OUT FOR A SPIN' LIKED IT BUT DIDN'T HAVE ENOUGH MONEY' HE SAID HE WOULD BE BACK' BUT YOU NEVER KNOW, SO I'M SELLING IT HERE AS A OPTION IF HE DOESN'T COME BACK.IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS DROP ME A LINE.I'LL TRY TO GET MORE PHOTO'S AS SOON AS THE MONSOON IS OVER.I PROBABLY LEFT OUT A FEW DETAILS' SEE HOW THE GRILL LOOKS' HE WAS GOING TO INSTALL FOG LIGHTS THERE.

IT TURNS OUT AFTER VERIFYING MILEAGE ON THE TRUCKS SPEEDDOMETER IT READS65851.5-K~I ALSO TRIED TO CLARIFY BY FINDING A HISTORY REPORT ON THE TRUCK'AND NONE WERE FOUND?I DON'T KNOW IF I'M MISTAKEN' OR IF IT'S TRUE' BUT I BELIEVE IN THESE OLD MODELS' A LINE RAN THROUGH THE MILEAGE EITHER WITH A RED LINE OR WHITE LINE WHEN A VECHICLE FLIPPED OVER 100,000. I COULD BE MISTAKEN.ANYWAY' THIS IS THE CORRECT SPEEDOMETER READING..65851.5 INSTEAD OF THE EARLIER ENTRY OF 172-K
