Okay asGREAT as this vehicle is, and this is an e-bay auction and all bidders will not all be able to inspect the vehicle and I wantno surprises for the buyer; here is a list of this items that I would like to point out;

This is not a perfect show truck. If a show truck is a 10, this truck is a solid 7-8.

This is a 1966 vehicle with non powersteering and non powerdrum brakes;the systems havebeen completelygone through andareworking as designed: however this is a dated braking and steering system and does not steer and brake like modern cars.

The wiper system is not working. Works off of fuel pump vacuum, which was gone through with out functional results.

I only replaced the passenger fuel tank, sender unit and inlet hoseand not the driver side tankwhich will need to be replaced.

There is no dash pad.

The side view mirrors are not factory.

There is no rear seat.

The paint job has slight orange peal ( I am being critical as I did not color sand and buff)

The steel wheels were not factory wheels, they are wider and the factory hubcaps sit out a little bit farther. You should be able to see this in the pictures.

I did not paint the rear end, leaf springs drive shaft, transmission and engine block.

This is a great vehicle and the buyer will not be disappointed. Please call with any questions you may have, 402-957-5414 for more information. Ask for Michael
