Default OMG saw a Lil' Red Express today!

Today as I was driving to my aunt's rummage sale, I saw a Lil Red Express. I saw the red color and the stacks as it was coming at me, and as it passed I saw the decal on the side. The thing was mint. I had to do a double take but i saw no rust and the paint was immaculate. I'm guessing it has never seen snow. It made me want one, and I was glad to see one in person and still see it driving around. If I ever see it parked anywhere I will be sure to get a pic...

I saw one at the gas station I work at a couple months ago. I walked around it. Paint was spotless. Not a spec of rust. The guy only paid 10 grand cdn for it and the previous owner had taken out the original 318 and dropped a 440 mag into it. Best truck to see in person hands down in my opinion
