mike69mackman Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 My wife took me for a ride this morning said my cancer doc wanted to see me. But instead she pulls into a local business and pulls up to an old r model. She goes take a look at and see what you think. So I start looking at it and low and behold its a gold dog r model . It has a 237 motor 5 speed , twin screw . Needs cab corners and 1 rocker panel. Doors are solid but has some pitting along the drip rail on the roof. The hood is solid. Year of the truck according to the owner is a 73 but if I'm reading the vin correct it's a 74. Any idea what that would be worth ball park figure wise? I did get a pic but not quite sure how to down load from I phone to computer.

1958 F.W.D. Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 I have an iphone.....just email the picture into your own email. Then get on your home computer, download/save the pic and then upload it in here as you would normally.
