Re: Burnt valves???
I went over to check the truck out a little better Monday. Body is pretty straight, the usual rust in the lower corners of the front fenders. The wood in the bed really needs some help. probably replacement will be the answer. Glass is good, engine compartment looks all complete with not a lot of any hash work done to it. Interior is good condition, just needs a good cleaning.
Wheels are after market, chrome spokes ones, will keep those, he has the stock split rims if I want them. May pass on those as I remember changing them when I worked in a sevice station in the 60s, not too bad, you had to be careful when you inflated them up to insure the ring was seated properly.
So far for the money he is asking the truck will be a good project, like I really need another one.
The trim strips on the door are both damaged, I think I have a question about those as I was looking on vendors sites that sold replacements, seems some had a single strip while other had a double with another thinner one on the lower portion. Milage on the odomater was 67K, not too bad. Found out that the PO before the one I am talking too had 2 of these trucks, this one which he used as a work around the place one, going to dump and such. The other which has been garaged since new and was used very little.
Forgot to take pictures, my bad, will take some when I drag it home.
