1) Nice truck!!
I saw quite a few of these trucks when I lived up there. I would love to get a SC truck!
Nice find, man!

They are in my trash trailer, only one wasn't broken.
2) So THIS is the trade-in that Calvin was talking about in the other thread? This one looks nicer that the one you sold.... at least in pics anyway...... If it is something minor, I think you got the better end of the deal........
Can you post that thread so I can read it later???????????
3) So what are the "mechanical repairs" that it is needing?
Well, the pic there for starters. I will check the rear end for oil in it and pray that there is some before I pull that plug. Steering gear box is leaking, it has an oil leak from a valve cover. The back window slider latch is broken, needs an oil change, and other fluids fully serviced. Tires need a rotation, rear bumper is tweaked, I may try and bend it with a chain, or swap that monster Ruenel off the back of my 86'. I am leaning towards doing that, it needs a hitch anyway, the owner wanted to keep it.
I directed the old owner to the site as a new member to, since he is an IDI owner and all.
