Anyway, nice truck. What do you plan to start with first? Does she run now?
First order of business is get it running, after cleaning the mice and their residue out of course. The guy told me he was feeding cows in it and was several feet away when his then toddler (now adult) daughter found her way to the accelerator pedal. Turns out the water pump was worn out and it threw the fan through the radiator. He pulled it home, bought the parts, and never fixed it. I can entertain myself for a pretty good while just piddling around fixing things. A full restoration isn't in it's immediate future. I have zero experience/knowledge with body work, but am pretty handy under the hood. Besides that, they're more fun when they can still be used.
