You can see the truck in the garage.

WOW that's amazing man !!! how did you figure out where he live ?! Still need his phone number before i decide to go to his address :S

[Mindl3ss]

That's right around the corner from my aunt and uncle's place.

I figured out the owners name and phone #.

It is a little old lady. She does not want to be bothered but is very anxious for the truck to be sold. She says it has been sitting in the garage for 10 years.

Her son is selling it for her and the correct phone # is 892 5057.

Good luck it looks like a really nice truck.

She said her son is camping at Miller lake this weekend and may not have cell service

How do/did you do that?

[farmall]

Simple detective work. Very simple. All the clues are right there in the c/l listing.

Study the photos, notice the vacant lot, the industrial fencing, the street directly across the street, the house number 5108.

How many 5108s can there be in K Falls?

Go to Google map or a real estate site and plug in 5108 K Falls. Look at the house or map and see if the neighborhood matches up.

Land ownership can be established by county records, building permits, tax records, phone books, many ways.

Please do not contact the old lady. I told her she would be left alone.

Man , I'm not sure what expression should I have Happy or surprised , I can't thank you enough for getting me all the details , of course I wouldn't need to go in person to the old lady, in fact no need to contact her at all.
I'll give her son a call and hopefully we could close the deal.

You are a detective in blood (Y)

Thanks buddy,

well First thing i did when i bought the truck is to get rid of the ugly camper it's not really my type, some would say its safe to keep things and would also keep the bed safe , aggh not mine. also I fitted the tail gate i need some polishing since it's been off for almost 30 years.

here is some pictures, few plans in mind but nothing active yet.



any ideas ?

Wow, that looks solid and very original. Nice job on polishing it up.

How many miles does it have?

I'd keep it nearly as is, and enjoy it after replacing the rubber and fluids.

As time moves on, there's getting to be fewer original ones on the road.

it has around 95k , and I guess I'll keep it as it is for the time being, Glad that you like it.
