  1. i have been trying to buy this truck for the last eight years of my uncle who inherited from my grandfather who had it new, she has been sat under a apple tree for the past 4 years, put a new battery on her and away she went, 52,000, miles from new, and she drives and sounds great, got work to do on her and we will be putting her back to her formal glory....
