Yes.. The single headlight was a 65 up change.... so I'm pretty sure the one I'm looking at is a 64 Probably a 200 That 300 of yours is substantially larger I think

Yes it was on that granny 4 speed. I think or I did have the PTO that bolts on there if you are interested I will look for it
Yea I would too. Price sounds good and it looks great.
Yes and if you look close you can see the fender well is bigger than on the 200
He said it "Had the plate on the side for it" (the PTO). What would that be reference to?
Said the 318 was rebuilt I assumed it's a modern LA... I should ask if its a Poly
I also have a 1968 d100 shortbed that needs a total restoration on. So I have some parts and a contact below Gettysburg that has a lot of stuff
usually to run a dump bed
Not looking to get into a project now until the Valiant is done at least. He's got plates on the truck and drives it now, so should be road worthy right out the gate. I'll put classic tags on it.
Now you do realize the thing will handle like an OLD truck. Probably no power steering
I don't think you will be sorry as I said 3/4 ton "short bed" is kind of rare
Yup. Grew up with Old Jeep pickups and 50's Chevy'
Trying to orient... This is the transfer case, right?
So where are the weak points where things fall apart on these I should focus on?
Here's a restored one
Poly 318, NP435 4 speed manual, divorced 201 transfer case, closed knuckle dana 44 front axle, dana 60 rear, 4:10 gears. 285/75/16 cooper mud tires
I a,m pretty sure that is the transmission and the PTO drives off of that. It will have a divorced Transfer case which is connected to the transmission with a short drive shaft and yes that is the PTO plate. It will have it;s own lever so you will then have 3 levers. ANd they were used to run a winch as well/
What year?
My buddy Max has one. His is dark green
I'm convinced the truck is a 64 even though it is advertised as a 65.. Just states "Recently rebuilt 318"
Like that Fargo above? I like the white roofline look
They really don't have weak points other than rust. And that would be the typical places on the fenders and across the front of the hood. ANother place is look in the cowl vent and down towards the door hinges is a bad place they rust and VERY hard to fix.
Pictures aren't the best in the ad, although he's been very good communicating over text messages. Sent me the undercarriage photos pretty quickly. It'll be a long-ish drive, but I think worth it.
It doesn't look like a Poly because the valve covers are narrower BUT the intake looks like a poly but I am the last person who would know.

Short WB, 3/4 T, 4WD, better stop at the nearest motorcicle shop an invest in a kidney belt. 
I would offer him closer to $9000 but it does look nice
No, no. I.. Am the LAST person in that line
