I just ordered a Tuffy console and upholstery for the jump seats. Let's see how it comes out when done. Then probably Bring a trailer auction

Done
I will never understand why people "upgrade" cruisers just to sell.

No serious buyers in as is condition despite low actual miles, little rust. I got two serious buyers who wanted turn key trucks , so here we are. And I have a lot of NOS parts so once painted it's easy to complete.

$30k
If I may... you really should close this thread and start a new one that begins with a completed, ready-to-sell 40... with a realistic price, pictures of everything, from every angle and a clear and succinct narrative about what you are offering.
I’m not saying you don’t have a realistic price, I’m merely saying your ad comes across as a con, by a used car salesman... it’s way too difficult to discern exactly why your 40 should be considered seriously, especially at $30k.
There’s generally a reason why no one seems interested and it’s frustrating when potential buyers have to beg for information, price and pictures.

Body work is done , assembly begun. New birfield seals and front brearings, OME springs, Bilstein shocks, center pivot bearing rebuild, rebuilt mini truck box, heat shield, New OEM bumper, new Fuji carb to replace the Holley and reinstall the OEM air cleaner , CCOT seat covers for the jump seats, CCOT seat belts, Tuffy console,
I'm in NNJ and interested. Can you make one post with the current specs of the truck with updated pics, etc. It tough to follow this build/sale thread. Thx.
Good luck, you can see my post #71, above.
You can also see that 2 months later, the seller continued posting his build thread instead of actually responding with anything of value.
This thread was created on March 3, 2019 and he has continued treating it as a build thread for 2+ years.
He seldom responds to any questions or requests for clarification.
There are plenty of ads by sellers who sincerely want to sell the vehicles they advertise.
This isn’t one of them.
