Never had seen a slick with skirts (had seen earlier trucks with skirts). These appeared to be 50-51 Ford car skirts if memory serves.
Seemed like basically a solid little truck, but most of that crap would have to go.
Called the owner on the phone and he said he had bought it to fix up, but it was going to cost more than he anticipated so decided to just sell.
Asked the price.
$3,500!
Picked myself up out of the dirt enough to ask how he had arrived at that price and he told me that's what he paid for it. I politely thanked him and drove away.
$1,000 tops, IF the cab mounts weren't rusty (which I suspect they are since the 3 spd column shift had been replaced with a floor shift. Did have a nice original dealer-installed "Rivers Ford, Monroe Louisiana" rear bumper similar to the one on Little Red.
