The odometer reads 10, 061 miles; hpwever it tool a little time to get the right speedo gear ratios figured out and replaced in the transmission, so the mileage on the odometer is actually lower than that.

This truck is a head turner and you'll get complements every day you drive it. It is not a trailer queen show truck however. It is meant to be driven. It is not perfect, but would likely win at local car shows. The only rust encountered during the restoration was a few pin holes under the battery tray and the folded over metal flap of the rockers (this in no way effects the integrity of the rockers at all). This was all treated with POR rust treatment and preventative. The rockers are solid and do not require replacing unless you want a show perfect truck underneath. They are solid. The truck has spent most of its life in the arid southwest desert of New Mexico. The floor pan is solid as well with no issued. It was covered with high end heat flection and sound deadening material prior to carpet installation.The truck runs strong and looks great. Come take a look.
