This truck has a very desirable dump bed on it with the duel real tires. The truck had a light cosmetic restoration done to it when i bought it. Since I purchased it. I have done nothing to it. It has sat in my garage in Southern California in a climate controlled environment. It has recently received a new gas pump along with a new battery to get it in running condition. The truck is now in nice running shape and works very well. The truck is not in show quality but is a very nice driver or would make great for a restoration project.
