Rear axle oil was replaced with proper viscosity Mobil 1 conventional oil. Misc. other small items. The truck runs with good oil pressure and a nice idle. Engine does smoke somewhat when first running but does clear as you drive to an extent. Transmission shifts well into all gears with a strong clutch. There are some leaks and seeps throughout the truck . as to be expected of a vehicle of its age. Brake system works and has not been modified . Tires are older and should be considered for replacement depending on your plans. As for electrical. previous owner made repairs to the wiring in areas however. all lights do work. Of note. the horn. does not work. As for the body/chassis. the truck presents well as a driver and has a pleasing patina to it. Truck has a 9ft step side bed. which is a very unique look. Aside from that detailed in the photos. corrosion is present in areas on the floor (some holes including in the passenger foot pan). cab corners. etc however. the cab mounts and major areas are good. Surface corrosion is present on the interior of fenders and floor bottoms. Rear fenders and steps are especially solid. All glass is in driver quality. however driver's side window is a plastic composite replacement. As for the interior. there are some tears in the seat. Overall. the truck is much better than many which have rotted away and could be an excellent driver or the start to something more. Since I have bought it. it has been plated and insured. I have driven it locally to the store and to car shows where it has always gathered positive attention. Unfortunately. things have changed in my life and I am no longer able to continue my refurbishment of this piece of American history. I love this truck but I must pass it on to someone who can continue fixing it up.
