Foley is just minutes north of Gulf Shores (SE of Mobile)

Over all it is a restorable truck. Interior floors and steps are badly rusted. There is some rust out located in the following areas; lh and rh bed sides just a few inches behind the doors has a small hole. Has rust out in the bottom of both doors, inside lip of the hood and the tailgate needs replacing. The rh rear lower section is dented but, it is repairable. At some point somebody has welded sheet steel to the bed floor. The back glass is laying in the front seat. Windshield is broken.

I wonder what colour the sky is in this guy's world

My point on letting everyone know where it is located....the sky is blue, but, the air has salt spray in it

Hell, a little paint and she'll be just fine.

I think they should dig a hole and give it a proper burial.................

Actually, the description sounds a lot like mine when I got it. Except mine still has a factory bed floor and some paint.

Same asking price too!

Maybe it's just surface rust...

The left door handle looks totally restoreable...definitely worth the asking price.

Come on guys! Don't you know that's just highly desired "Patina"?
(Saw that in an "oldcars.com" listing the other day.

You couldn't get $300 for that thing if you weighed it for scrap...

Honestly, you guys have no sense of adventure...

in scrap price its worth 300.00 but if you look does has a few good pieces not much but a few, I see it still has some of the original wheels if not ate out but look this a survior of Katrina, a conversational item, any more south of Mobile it will be in the gulf

oh its rare to see that many rust termites holding hands

Yep a man would be a fool to waste the extra $50 and 5000 hours saved on this
