Would it make the drive to California in it's current condition?

this ad was in 2012 but I do still have the truck and for the right price I would let it go but I am not actively trying to sell it anymore.

I bought new rocker panels and a floor patch panel for it just not installed yet.

it has started to burn a little oil I think its valve seals. as it sat a lot before I got it and I do not drive it threw the winters so it sits a lot without being started. I think the valve seals are bad due to that

and the power steering pump is weak

for 5,000 I would put new valve seals in it and change the power steering pump.

it runs and drives great but it is it is a 43 year old truck with original drive train and suspension except a motor swap sometime in its life.
I would drive it anywhere but I would not do it without my tool box and a little extra cash for any possible break downs. so all I will say if you do it its at your own risk.

Is that the original paint or has it had bodywork done to it???

 

[kleedus]

I bought it from the original owners son I am the third owner
