I purchased the truck 7 years ago and have only driven it about 800 miles total – I drive it a couple of miles every couple of weeks. Until March of this year I kept the truck in a climate controlled storage, since then I kept it covered in my garage. The truck was completely restored prior to me buying it. The restoration occurred in Missouri by the owner of a John Deer Dealership (hence the color). Since I have owned the truck I added all new brakes, bushings, interior door panels, battery, shackles, repainted running boards, re-chromed grill and a re-finished the wood bed. The truck does not need any additional work done to it. Since the truck is mostly original there is no A/C or seatbelts. It was a farm truck so it is geared for slower speeds and tops out about 40 mph.
