“This is a very rare and desirable model with an extremely hard to find no rust body! This truck is a beast, built with an excellent replacement drive-line that has tons of torque and power! Original mileage is unknown as it is not the OEM drive-line, but everything is either new or updated, so I listed only the engine mileage for reference. If you love these trucks, this is a great opportunity to buy a very rare model that is almost impossible to find with a rust free body! Has nice clean later model seats and after-market mags with custom heavy duty bumpers and receiver hitch wired for towing. You can save thousands on body work and start enjoying cruisin with the top off right away and all summer long!” |
