Yes, it's a 2 wheel drive kingcab I've inherited from my 85 year old uncle. My wife says it looks like something Sanford and Son would drive! - even though it's in superb condition with only 86k miles and no body damage - heck, its never been painted or modified in any way and is still equipped with its original pushbutton AM/FM radio, seats - everything including the original interior with the plastic bag and jack accessories - even the owners manual is still in the glove box. It's as if it were placed in an time capsule for almost 30 years. I've had it sitting in our garage (its rather large) for about 2 years now debating on what to do with it. It does have an automatic transmission with powersteering and A/C - I'm planning on updating its appearance, hence the wheel inquiry and keeping it until I'm ready for the cemetary. My uncle was a great man - a NASA engineer instrumental in making the shuttle happen - he loved his truck and being an engineer myself, he knew I'd look after it. - I am. Thank you very much for your responses - I tend to recall reading in another post on another venue that only early 6 lug wheels fit due to either offset and/or bolt pattern differing from later units (?) . I apologize for the lengthy story.
