TAKE A LOOK AT THIS TRUCK. SIMPLY STATED IT IS OLD SCHOOL COOL WITH ALL THE COOLEST UPGRADES AND STILL THE LOOK OF THE 40'S. THIS IS AN ARIZONA TRUCK SINCE NEW, BETTER YET IT HAS BEEN IN THE SAME FAMILY SINCE 1952. ORIGINALLY EQUIPPED WITH A 6 CYLINDER ENGINE AND 3 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION, THE TRUCK UNDERWENT A MAJOR RENOVATION IN THE LATE 80'S RETAINING THE ORIGINAL POWER PLANT, BUT RECEIVING A FRAME UP RESTORATION. THE NEXT EVOLUTION TOOK PLACE ABOUT 8 YEARS AGO, TIRING OF THE 6 CYLINDER AND MANUAL TRANSMISSION THE TRUCK WAS FITTED WITH A FACTORY CRATE MOTOR FROM GENERAL MOTORS A FUEL INJECTED RAMJET 350 / 350, COUPLED TO THAT IS A 700R4 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. THE UPGRADES DIDN'T STOP THERE, NEXT CAME INDEPENDENT FRONT SUSPENSION, POWER DISC BRAKES, POWER STEERING, DAKOTA DIGITAL GAUGES, A CHROME TILT, STEERING COLUMN, DUAL EXHAUST WITH HEADERS, AN UPGRADED COOLING SYSTEM WITH HIGH PERFORMANCE RADIATOR, AND FANS, THE TRUCK WAS THEN OUTFITTED WITH VINTAGE AIR CONDITIONING THAT INCLUDES HEATING. CLASSIC STYLING WITH THE 5 SPOKE CHROME AMERICAN RACING LOOK WHEELS BUT UPGRADED TO 245/45/17 FRONTS WITH COMPLIMENTING 255/55/18 REARS. THE REARS FIT NICELY UNDER THE AFTERMARKET FIBERGLASS REAR FENDERS. FINISHED OFF WITH CHROME RUNNING BOARDS AND THE ORIGINAL RECHROMED GRILL AND BUMPERS THIS TRUCK IS THE PERFECT COMBINATION OF NEW AND OLD. THE BED INSIDE AND OUT IS IN REMARKABLE CONDITION THE SIDES ARE STRAIGHT AND THE BED IS REFINISHED WITH NEW WOOD AND HARDWARE. KEEP IN MIND THAT THE PAINT IS ROUGHLY 20 YEARS OLD BUT DESPITE A FEW BLEMISHES SHE SHOWS QUITE WELL AND GETS COMPLIMENTS EVERYWHERE WE GO.
I AM SURE I AM FORGETTING SOMETHING. PLEASE REQUEST ANY ADDITIONAL PHOTOS OR INFORMATION BEFORE THE END OF THE AUCTION, THE TRUCK IS BEING SOLD PRIVATELY, NO ARIZONA SALES TAX APPLIES. THE TRUCK IS BEING SOLD AS IS, NO WARRANTIES, IMPLIED OR EXPRESSED ARE APPLICABLE. THIS IS A TRUCK THAT WOULD BENEFIT FROM SOME COSMETIC UPGRADES BUT CAN ABSOLUTELY BE DRIVEN AND ENJOYED AS IS SHE LOOKS AWESOME. AN INSPECTION IS ENCOURAGED AND AVAILABLE BY APPOINTMENT. THIS LITTLE TRUCK IS EASY TO DRIVE WITH ALL OF ITS ENHANCEMENTS AND GOES DOWN CITY STREETS OR THE OPEN HIGHWAY LIKE A LATE MODEL PICKUP, SMOOTH RIDE, COLD AIR CONDITIONING AND A GREAT SOUND SYSTEM.
