Got Insulin?

Bought this truck in a few months ago as bike/toy hauler, but wound up finding something I liked better in the meantime, so this has got to go.
The Rad:
Inspected, runs, drives
BRAND New tires
ALL New brakes inc lines, MC, booster, calipers, and rear wheel cylinders. P/O replaced everything but the booster and the front calipers, I replaced those when I noticed the booster itself was rusting out and snapped the bleeders off, haha.
New water pump, Tstat, and fresh fluids.
New trans pan gasket, filter, and fluid
Fresh oil change with 50 miles on it
Newer paint from PO
Refreshed interior with new coverings on seats, not just covers
Pretty fresh bedliner
Power liftgate, tested to 150lbs, makes a lot of noise, don't know much about it
Brand new trans cooler with huge core
All new filters, and fluids throughout
Strong 351
The not so Rad:
*The truck needs some time spent on bleeding the brakes. I just don't have time to do it thoroughly. Truck stops no problem, but the pedal basically goes to the floor before engagement. Ebrake also needs to be adjusted.
*PO did not fix the rust entirely on the fenders, so it's coming through. It's not terrible, but its there.
*Typical F-series rot around fenders as mentioned, and in the corners of the door jambs, and some underneath. Typical for a PA truck that saw winters
*The column and the shifter is a bit funny, needs adjustment, but drives just fine.
*Will eventually need a windshield. Has a crack that expanded in that cold snap we had in early march. Defroster go the better of me.
Cliffs:
Runs and drives no problem, Feb Inspection
Fresh everything more or less
Minor rust
Brakes need attention
Will eventually need a windshield
Awesome work truck or, as I was setting it up, drift car tow rig. Just need it out of my driveway. Come take it home by May the 9th, and I'll do $1,000 cash. Title in hand. Get yourself a tow vehicle for ECB. 215 906 9926
