Yea, this one is not rust free, it has it's spots (like most), but they are not that bad.

I brought it home Saturday!!! I. AM. PUMPED!!!!

I think my first order of business is to change out the awful steering wheel that is in it and put in a more OEM wheel. A quick search reveals that reproductions are expensive! Dang. Looks like I'm going to have to scrounge through Craigslist and salvage yards to try and find one.

And, here are some pictures! Unloading and taking my son on his first cruise around the neighborhood. He's already claiming it as his truck!

Little dude looks as excited as you, good memories right there.

He was LOVING IT! We had to go outside 3 or 4 times throughout the day so he could look at it and play in it! When he first saw it Sunday morning, it took about 30 seconds before he was already calling it his! It was pretty cool!
