This truck spent its life in Indio California serving on a Date
Farm. Dan's nephew found the truck in Palm Springs and sold
it to Dan’s brother who sold it to Dan. The restoration is of
professional grade and is considered frame off. Painted the
correct red, the body was stripped and dipped in parts. There
is zero rust and zero bondo. The body, bed, and cab are
perfect. 15” x 6” Mercury rims with G78 white walls with 53
ford hubs. After market power steering, flat head ford mount
kit with a GM power steering pump. This has been in the
family for over 25 years.
Seat belts have been installed, maintenance has been regular, tires
rotated and driven regularly, oil is always fresh and nothing needs
fixed.
The car RUNS & DRIVES GREAT!
This car has been stored in a climate controlled setting every
second of its life since in Dan's possession. Zero Rust.
