Looks like granddad needed a brake job well before he stopped driving it, judging by the grooves in the drums. Will need to be redoing the whole brake system. Needs an oil change. Will likely upgrade to an alternator.

Welcome to the forum, Dan! I see you've got the rare big back window and a relatively straight and rust-free cab. That's great that you're able to keep it in the family! Are you planning on keeping the flat bed, or looking for a pickup bed for it?
