v3...the Dents we find

[m78]

I wouldn't mind having that Scrambler parked against the building.

I guessed about 3k# on that block of cement too.

This looks like a really nice truck. Not sure why it would be missing rear bumper, so I would want to look for bodywork.

I have mixed feelings on this truck. First I feel terrible for you northern guys, we'd settle at half of that asking price around here. Where I do have some love for it is all the green interior, looks like it's all there...and I know the guys with green interiors would give a left nut and first born because good green interiors just don't show up. Between the seat and door panels, I bet I could $500 for those pieces alone.

WOW that green one is an amazing truck....

There was a Red 77 around here for sale for a while with a Black interior, 4wd, 3/4ton, with a 400 and a 4sp with somehting like 35K original miles....

ahh if only ida had 9 grand....

I hear ya there. Green is attractive to many people and finding matching parts is almost impossible in nice condition. While I do think it's a nice truck and probably worth the money up here, those kinds of trucks just don't sell for that kind of money at least here in MN. Minnesota is a vintage vehicle state, but when going to shows and seeing what's on the road, there are very few trucks. Most guys are into cars and if they want a truck they want a new more comfortable family one. No one wants to give good money for an old workhorse.

The missing cowl badges scream new paint to me, too.

It looks good though. Whenever I think fresh paint for my truck the thought of going solid green instead of my current tu-tone always crosses my mind.

Thoughts?

Oh yes - I would love to have those interior pieces as spares. I have the wood grain-on-green door panels now - just to have a backup set of those alone would be awesome.

That is beautiful, Roy. Nice color. I wonder if that's an original color?

Did you notice the bed/cab trim lines don't match up on the passenger side ?
It does look good though.

HeHe. Did you ever do anything with your model? I've opened the lid on mine a couple of times, but that is all.
