yeah, the kid said at begining of winter when he got it from his grandpa the heater didnt work. it ended up getting a timing belt,water pump,all new pulleys,new tensioner too. he drove it till like a month ago, blew the bypass hose, ran outt of coolant and overheated on him. never to run again. well untill i got it im 530$ total into this truck and it runs amazing!
