The pictures are from last Fall. Has plenty of body rust but it is not that bad for this type of vehicle of this age. Floors seem to be solid, rusty but solid. Has a good rust free bird bath hood. High back cloth buckets with arm rests in nice condition.Glove box door has cracks but the rest of the dash is in good shape. Interior does have some mold and mildew in some areas.

All the glass seems to be good. Exterior tee handle for rear hatch does not work. There is at least one correct key that works in the doors and the ignition.Was a factory A/C truck but mot of the A/C components have been removed. Most of those parts are in the back of the truck, possibly all of them. There are many extra parts included with this truck. Many brackets, another set of leaf springs with less lift, front drive shaft that does not appear to fit, etc, etc. More parts then I can list and/or identify.

Dana 60 rear and a 44 front. They both have rusty chrome covers and axle trusses. Has a good solid brake pedal and the brakes will hold the truck from rolling on a ramp. There are no drive shafts. It does have factory skid plates on the transfer case and the gas tank. Has dual Rancho steeringstabilizers. Has dual Rancho shocks at each wheel. Some are not connected or installed and all the shocks look to bad from rust. Has about a 3 inch body lift and about an 8 inchsuspensionlift.

This is not a running or driving truck. It will need to trailered or towed. It will be up to the buyer to have this vehicle moved at the time of pick up. There is nowarranty and no delivery.
