I just picked up this critter Friday evening. After spending about 4 hours crawling in, on, over, under, and in-between everything, I acquired it. The last MWO applied was in June 2010, and is in terrific shape. This truck has been gone through fairly thoroughly. All the fluids are pristine, it received a new engine, tranny, and transfer case very recently. Everything is tight mechanically.

Check out the pics!
Ask any questions you wish and I'll try to answer them.

Just as an FYI, that truck is not an A1. It is an M923. You can tell by the dual 1100 tires. Also, the 1984 build year confirms this. IF it has an A1 data plate, that just means they used one when they overhauled it. I am pointing this so you get the info correct on the title...unless you would just prefer to match the data plate. Personally, I'd prefer to get the correct data plate. Nice truck!
