Hey special-K ... didn't realize you had replied ... had to change my default notification in CP Options ... I'm actually in the Greater Vancouver area in British Columbia, Canada ... took photos of target truck last night and got clearer on current condition and equipment / options - gotta go thru the photos now and re-size all the suitable ones for posting ... will post back again here in a while ...
northerngmc ... thank you for the good tip ... I'll go have a look at the canadatrader site ...
In all honesty, the truck has been let go for too long and was sitting outside in tall grass ... has been for a year and a half since popping a frost plug (motor OK so far as I can tell) it's gonna need complete rocker panel sections both sides (cab floor may be an issue adjacent to the rockers ... couldn't tell for sure how far towards the center of the truck the rust goes) and R wheel opening (smaller variety) pieces each side cut out and new welded in. RF fender inner has issues, as does metal-floor box.
I am probably going to pass on it as I'd have to pay $3500CAD for starters, and, there's more work there than I really want to get involved with.
We'll see. FFF
