It's brand spanking new in the box If you can somehow get me your mailing address I have a pneumatic spark plug cleaner I will send you free with shipping included that makes all spark plugs look brand new. If you have an air compressor that puts out around 90 psi it does a fantastic job. I will even enclose a plug that was just cleaned with my own cleaner. I will also send you a bottle of the media which is just very fine media that they sell at Tractor Supply. This is all assuming you don't already own one of these. I figured if you do you would have used it in your videos which I have watched every single one and am subscribed Let me know. I await your response.

I sure do like that GMC. Back in the late 80s I found a 1950 gmc 1/2 ton short, side step pu and was able to trade for it with a 1963 buick special I had gotten for free, but it had no interior whatsoever. That 1950 gmc was in great shape, and the interior was all remarkably in nice shape other than the seat, which I replaced.. I put a lot of work into it and then 3 years later the transmission went and i could not get one anywhere at the time in my area, and there was no Internet, and I didn't know anything about finding parts across the country. I wound up selling it for about $1,000 to a guy for his son.. I still miss that truck, wish I'd held onto it, but had nowhere to keep it. Edit: the Buick was a 64' not 63'

This one made me think of how I did this to our 51 GMC Freezer Truck when I was 15! She needed to move after 30+ years of holding Ice Cream behind our Market and I took on the challenge. It went just like this but used a giant screwdriver to kick the starter . I finally drove her with square tires about a mile to her new resting place where the buyer pulled the freezer box off and used it while the Truck was sold off. She was a genuine Knudsen milk truck from 51! In 50 years she only had 28K!
