Thanks for the tips Stu. This truck has no rust on it at all that
I've been able to find. Yes, the bracket is there on the floor, but
the fuel can holder is not. At what mileage should I be concerned
about the radiator? And I seem to recall that the injector pumps can
become suspect around the 70-80k mark, is that right?
