I was going to warn you about that! These are herd animals and will not stay in the pasture alone for very long. That one looks like someone loved it like a prize winning bull. Is the paint really that good or are you just a great photographer? Looks sweet!!
I can't read the date on the data plate and have not seen a September truck yet. Is that a 31/ 8.....or a 9?
Hood, Roof, steering wheel, fuel tank and muffler are the 5 rare pieces so you've got a gem. wow.
I know,,,,you see one, and first thing you have four looking at you. (well,,3 and a half), but I was after this truck for at least 15 years, and the time I first talked to him, wasn't that pleasant an experience. So when I was told he was selling, I rememberd the last time we spoke, and said"ok, your asking for it, but no guts, no glory!" A friend I brought (pestered) into coming with me was amazed at how ........bad .....moody.... he was. As for appearance, he must have painted it two days before, because my garage smells like fresh paint. Hood is ok, roof great, steering wheel, great, fuel tank repaired,(and a story with that one!) muffler, and exhaust all not great. Some lights work, no big deal. I now need TWO convoy lights complete with plates.I checked the build date, it's 31 08 55. I'm going to make a YT video, and show more of it for those interested.
