Local truck I drove by on the way to work, go figure....
Came from Fort Jackson GL
Has a sticker inside the door with a bar code reading "NWS Charleston" Which Googles as National Weather Service
Putting together a plan for inspection, fluids and general maintenance
Need her tip top so I can pick up my M101A2 when my EUC clears!
Im happy for no custom forklift work either :)

Very clean!
2 rust spots, drivers side door sil area and a cab spot on the passenger side
Other than that I cant get over how "solid" everything is on the body, it doesnt seem 25 years old

As for what it "needs", TLC...
Small leak in the radiator (will pull that tinight)
Heater core is not hooked up, so I assume it needs a heater core
Cracked windshield
Interior stuff (dash, door panels, seat upolstry....)
Passenger door RATTLES like crazy, hinges are good, hope it just needs adjustment
I need to do all the PM fluids, grease, ect and just get familiar with her

I'll be spending way to much time here trying to figure it all out!

But cranks quick and easy so I think engine wise she is good
