Wonder if it's a manual or if that's for 4wd? Love these, not that I know anything about them.

"Believe 1973. Got title."

Well, if you've got the title, it doesn't matter what the berkeley you believe.

sorry, i'm still riled up from the grammar thread. might as well say "I'm believing its' one ninety-seven three."

Yes manual.

Note: no column shifter:

No to 4wd.  Those are 2wd hubs:

 

Shockingly rust free for a Michigan vehicle of this age:

there's never any metal left in this area:

 

Bonus: It's the 3/4 ton version.

if I was going to buy something like that, I'd get that Checker Airport Limo I posted around a month ago...

My dad bought one of these new in 1970, and sold it sometime in the 2000's. I can back up Indy - Guy on the manual transmission 2WD.

Fun truck, but the driving experience is a workout compared to modern vehicles!

Gotta be a manual 2WD or (if they offered it) full time 4WD. I doubt full-time. There are no locking hubs either. I'm saying 2wd manual.

I just asked him for the year. That irritates me too. Just like someone will sell a car and say "I have the title somewhere, just can't find it". Uh, find the title moron. If you are that unorganized (never lost a title after owning 50+ cars) then apply for a new one. When you have the title, THEN you can list it.
