Sweet!
You NEED to restore this one!
It does not look in too bad of shape. As a person who has a 2WD truck, I find these pretty cool!
What makes the Mojave a Mojave? All I know is the metallic sand color...

Hey Jake. The 2wd was limited to 3500 or 3000 units to the u.s. Some of the exclusive options were non embossed tailgate, bed with out tie downs. No badging on the truck. Chrome headlight bezels. Chrome reartube bumper. Cruise in the console,tilt, special stereo, bronze tinted windows from factory, special gauge cluster. High end carpet and Mojave embroidered seats. Special wheels which I don't have. Probably some more stuff that I've forgot. Tony

Im sure I can give you a heck of a deal. Maybe even deliver it lol
I was thinking that exact same thing til my daughter called and reminded me it's sold. Dangit!
Robb the car trailers down here are 2-4 grand. I'm gonna save up for a rollback wrecker. Funny thing, I rented this trailer in Georgia and since I'm dropping it off in Florida, they gave me two days for one day price. In addition, extra days are only $20! Anyone need something moved? Haha
I didn't quite make it home tonight. Got to the Florida border, time for a nap. I'm too old for 1700 miles in two days. Later

Dug under the seat today and found a folder with receipts for everything that has ever been done to the truck. Including the original paperword when the owner took delivery of it in Mississippi. Also found two extra keys for the truck

Thanks Terry. It was worth the 700 mile drive. I added a little oil to the compressor today and had a few ounces of r-12. Put it in and the a/c cooled like a dream. Im probably gonna vac it out and switch the system over to the new stuff now that I know it works.
