 This pickup truck is mechanically sound and can be driven anywhere at a speed of 55 to 60 mph. It runs very smooth at this speed with the current 4. 10 ratio differential. If you wanted to change to a different differential ratio. I'm certain you could increase the driving speed. The speedometer works correctly but the odometer does not.

 If you have questions about the mechanical condition of the truck let me know and. if I can't answer your question. I can put you in touch with the certified mechanic that has worked on it since June 2005.

 The interior is in excellent condition with no tears or cracks.

 The exterior is in excellent condition with the normal 11 years of wear. There is a dent. /u> as shown in one of the pictures. on the headlight ring on the passenger's side. You are bidding on one of the best 1965 D1200 pickups in the country.
