What are you going to do first? Looks like a rocker is bad? I think you have a good buy and I know you are going to make it look sweet!

All the glass in this thing looks new, it's perfect compared to condition of the truck.

Re: Lucky Find
Got the starter on and motor turned over, sounded good but no spark. Switched out wheels and tires. Finding acorns stashed everywhere as this thing sat out in the woods for years!

Not to much?????? That is a good question. Do we guys pay $400 for a new purse or $200 for a new pair of black shoes when we already have 30 pair of black shoes? Do we spend $40 a week for our nails? Do we spend endless hours shopping and wasting time look at things we have no business looking at.......no.

Please ask her to define to much...........my wife see junk....I see gold.


Looks like a good find to me and if you paid to much who cares enjoy it.

Re: Lucky Find
Thanks Jam55, the front wheels and tires are too small so I ordered new ones. I will put the 15 X 8 with the 255/60/15's on the front and put the new 15 X 8 with 275/60/15's on the rear. the truck goes to S&H Custom Auto next week to get lowered.
