Rat Boy says; Agree, put on a rear view mirror for safety and maybe clear coat it satin or flat to mainatin that beautiful petina. I'd be using it for my Rona & Home Depot runs just the way it is.

missing a LOT of parts, like all trims and side chrome, rear bumper is wrong, wrong tail gate it has a GMC tail gate on it, wrong wheels, wrong interior, wrong steering wheel, missing back up lamps, no side mirrors (i wonder how it passed provincial inspection) and i am probably missing a few parts
It's really hard honouring my New Year's resolution to not pass judgement on vehicles posted for sale. I have lots of things to say on this one but I won't.
It's a truck, the worse it looks the better. That way you don't have to worry when putting a load of gravel in the box.
65camino gets hassled all the time when we are loading up the '65 with wood and drywall at the Home Depot, one guy was so pissed at him he said it was criminal the way he was treating the truck

can't argue with you on the truck definition, you are right
but i have a 2010 F-150 for that, and a 8.5 X 14 dump trailer for the drywall, 2X4's and the gravel.... the truck does the pulling
but a 1969 Pickup i feel needs to retire at some point, just like most people pass 55, to be able to enjoy life, and i feel this truck has enough potential to enjoy life once again all restored up
