I finished restoration April 2010. I restored this truck for myself to my own high standards with no plans to sell at the time. I’ve got two other projects that I’d like to complete this winter so I thought I’d put this one up for sale. I’d sure like to keep them all, but I don’t have a pole barn yet, or I would. Since it was recently finished and in beautiful shape, I thought to move it down the line while it was still fresh. Everything was taken apart, prepped, primed, and re-painted. Bed was removed and frame painted. Fenders, doors, hood, tailgate were removed and painted separately. Cab painted separately inside and out. Wheels were sand blasted and repainted silver. Undercarriage was painted and wheel wells were undercoated. Interior Door panels, Dash pad, visors, and moldings were coated with proper paint for plastic and vinyl. Mixed to match the seat vinyl perfectly by the auto paint shop .(touch-up paint included) Seat belts are original and are a light blue color. May want to swap those out for a set of black ones. Engine bay completely painted. Inner fenders were removed and painted. Tailgate opens and shuts smoothly and is well aligned. Tailgate handle and linkage was removed, painted, and serviced and operates perfectly. Thank you for visiting this listing. Feel free to ask any questions before bidding. Nick 815-342-8620
