The truck has been a daily driver making deliveries for my brewery (hence the decals on the doors.) The bed is protected by removable carpet-covered boards, and a custom dust cover is included too. The truck is sound and runs beautifully (including highway travel), but a new coat of paint might do it well as there are a few minor scratches. To our knowledge, this car has only had 5 owners including us (having spent most of its life in North Dakota), and the 53k on the odometer is the original mileage! The upholsteryis also original. Some noteworthy features:
- "4-on-the-floor" manual transmission and foot stomp starter
- Recent 12V conversion including 100A chrome alternator (could easily support an AC system)
- Optima yellow-top battery
- LED turn signals
- New radio (classic look)
- New horn
Also installed a battery disconnect solenoid switch (toggle on the dash). The inline 6 engine fires up and runs great with an ignition coil with built-in resistor, but the standard 12V ignition coil and external ballast resistor used before this upgrade is still on our hands if you'd prefer to have that. The windshield wipers are on an electric motor.
