Made by my wife out of vinyl fabric, using the old shift boots as a pattern. They are nice. She'll get a kick that you noticed!

Great looking truck. It sounds like it's been well maintained.

I especially like the vent windows :-D

Can you elaborate on the rust situation at the A Pillar? Is it completely rusted through?

 

[Garage Guy]

There is corrosion through the A pillar metal near the windshield gasket at both the top and bottom corners on the passenger side. I am leaving it as-is to let the buyer repair as he sees fit, nor not. I could email photos but if you are local a first-hand inspection would be the best way for you to evaluate it. Let me know if you are interested.
