Congrats! Looks like you found a nice one. Welcome to the forum, and have fun with your truck. BTW...it appears that your truck had the fender-mounted heater on it at one time, considering the defroster ductwork and the round hole in the cowl area. Since you're in NE Oregon, you may want to find another one and get it installed before winter.

Thanks, all. I'm tickled to find one of these, finally.
Lifer, I think the heater was a work in progress at one time. There are no holes in the fender to accommodate the mount, so I'll probably patch the hole and remove the defroster ductwork.

I wouldn't remove the defroster duct, actually. If it was installed completely, there will be a big round hole in the dash.

Nice looking truck! Are the mechanicals as good as the body?

Mechanicals seem to be as good as the body. 27K miles, loose steering, gear whine...yup, it's all there.
