Now im not a super fan of trucks.... But yea... I would have bought that if i found it. Only to drive to work and that would be it. I would be scared to do anything else with it for the fact that I wouldn't wanna ruin its beauty. Lol great find. I hope i find something that nice in the future!

The bed was scratched up when I bought it and had some rust under the spots where the roll bar was attached. I repaired the rust spots and toyed with the idea of repainting the bed but I had my Tundra lined last summer and really like it so I had this one done.

I paid $8300 for it. The money went to a good cause. The original owner had worked for the same bakery for 35 years so when he died this summer his widow was in a real financial bind. They didn't have a lot of money and selling the truck gave her some money to pay the bills until his pension kicked in. What would you guys be willing to pay for this truck? BTW its not for sale just a question.

I would fully expect a collector or even a Dealer would pay a similar amount for such a clean original truck. Its an amazing truck, and I seriously doubt one could find one in better condition.
