Meredith,

The east coast is not a really good place to find non-rusted trucks. The
best ones seem to be out west (Arizona, Montana etc). The problem is
shipping. Unless you can drive one back it's probably going to cost more
to ship than the truck is worth. You can do internet searches ( like
altavista) to try to find on within reach. Even Texas may not be too far.
