    i bought it about 3 weeks ago and picked it up today. it is a 250, auto,air and power disc brakes. has a little rust but i think it will make a good daily driver. trans needs work

    Looks good, that puppy shouldn't be too hard to make into a real nice daily driver!

    Good score! Shouldn't be hard to make it into a daily driver. Love the wheels and color scheme.

    BTW, any chance of you lowering just a tad? Good luck with it!
