1981 Flareside in western Canada

Rembrant
This is a nice lookin' little Flareside for a reasonable price. Looks like original paint? Assuming it is a true "western truck" and is not too rusty underneath, then it would be a great starting point for a restore. If it was within a few hundred miles (instead of 3000) I'd probably be on my way to see it right now;).

I like it!  That's a very nice truck and $2478 US is a very reasonable price.

Gone by the time I looked. Was not too far away either, but I already bought one of your finds! Still in trouble at home for that one.

I'd say that truck sold in just a few hours at that price. Decent Flaresides don't show up very often, and when they do, they're usually priced higher. This one looked decent enough in the pics, and was supposedly a driver, so if it was being driven it was already far ahead of many of the Bullnoses I come across in that price range.

Did you see the new guy from SK with the XLS Bullnose? That's going to be a nice little project truck.
