Over all it is a restorable truck. Interior floors and steps are badly rusted. There is some rust out located in the following areas; lh and rh bed sides just a few inches behind the doors has a small hole. Has rust out in the bottom of both doors, inside lip of the hood and the tailgate needs replacing. The rh rear lower section is dented but, it is repairable. At some point somebody has welded sheet steel to the bed floor. The back glass is laying in the front seat. Windshield is broken.

I wonder what colour the sky is in this guy's world :roll:

My point on letting everyone know where it is located....the sky is blue, but, the air has salt spray in it ;)

Actually, the description sounds a lot like mine when I got it. Except mine still has a factory bed floor and some paint.

Same asking price too! :lol:

Maybe it's just surface rust...

The left door handle looks totally restoreable...definitely worth the asking price. :lol:
