Re: [MBZ] Towing in Oklahoma -- Member Contact?

The pictures were taken with very good lighting.  The truck is decent and not 
rusty.  But, it definitely needs the Dan (Martha Stewart) treatment.  It has 
typical ford red oxidized paint and the passenger window doesn't work and needs 
an a/c compressor.  But, it is definitely a good solid truck!

The trailer tire/towing was the biggest expense.   It definitely counts as 
success in my book!

Thanks!  I am hopeful the car can be safe and roadworthy without too much 
effort!   AND since I had to replace the trailer tire I think this grants me 
use of the trailer in the future!
