Yep...I bought another one!
While my truck is down for restoration, this will be my beater/work truck. I don't have it home yet (the 4.1L straight six has a blown headgasket or a cracked head and is overheating). I'll be flat-bedding it home tomorrow most likely.
Got it for $700, which is a damn good deal around here. People think their hacked/modified/rust bucket truck is a "classic maaaan!" and want $5k for a POS, so this was a breath of fresh air.
Plans are to clean it up, swap the crappy bench for a 40/20/40 split seat I have, buff the paint to get some shine back, replace the rear bumper, swap in a V8 (I have a 305 in the garage) or fix the straight six, and drive the bitch.
It's got an automatic trans (TH350) and not sure on the rear gears.
I'll get more pictures tomorrow, but here is one from the craigslist ad:
