Nice work on the steps!
That is all harder than it looks, and the tub overall is really nice

I will check back in case sale doesn’t work out

Well, time will tell. This is the second time I have taken a deposit. The first guy disappeared.

Found a few more on my phone.

These are a bit older before I started cleaning it up.

 

[letterman52]

Ground down the welds and started the last body patch. Bored.

So.. is this still for sale, going up on BAT or what?

Nice work, by the way.

Oddly enough the guy didn’t come back today and gave up his deposit. He had 48 hours. Getting rich off deposits it appears. So yes back up for sale. BAT was pretty rude over the phone so I’ll just leave it up here. Second week of July it moves to VA and will no longer be for sale.

Rate the engine on a scale of 1-10 with a 10 being excellent
Is this the original engine/transmission? (engine number will confirm production date, please provide). I have no reason to think it’s not, but didn’t actually verify.
Has either engine/transmission been rebuilt? - See ad.
Original carburetor or after market? Original.
What repairs does the engine/transmission need? Maybe an engine tune. Runs fine though.
Does it leak fluids? Zero
Does it burn oil? Level is always the same.
Is the clutch in good shape? Shifts fine.
Have brakes been serviced? When? Not sure. Stops quick.
Transmission - in good working order - both high and low range? Works fine.
Does it shift smoothly? It does.
Power steering? If you need to ask...
How many inches of play in the steering? Not sure. Not enough for me to comment.


Rate the interior on a scale of 1-10 with a 10 being perfect
What is broken or missing on the interior? The front doors are missing a circle cover. Not sure what it’s called. I have one. Old rubber.
Seats Ripped - Obviously not.
Headliner sagging or gone? Already addresses this in the ad.
Rear Jump Seats present? Yep
Dash Pads Ripped or cracked? They are good. Upper was replaced with a dash box.
Dash board cut out for add-on switches or stereo? I didn’t see any extra holes. The odd toggle I thought was an add on is the OEM back up light switch.
Original Radio? Didn’t have one originally.
Gauges working? See below.
All signals working? They work but need bulbs.
Brake lights? Needs a bulb for the dash. Exterior lights work. Interior light Worked and then i started messing with the gauge/speedo shorts.
Head lights? Work fine
Turn Signals? Work fine
Licence Plate lights? Brand new OEM. Work fine.
Hazards? Chasing a short with the turns. Separate flasher relay. Might just use an electronic.
Wipers? Works fine
Washers? Drivers side works. I think the passenger is clogged.
Instrument lighting? Works fine.
Interior Light? Have it. Not hooked up as I was going to pull the top for a new headliner.
Original Owners manual present? - I believe so. Stated I have it.
Inspection light present? Doesn’t have one
Jack present? No
Toolbag Present? No
Rear Heater? yes - does it work? Worked, but unhooked the dash switches while chasing the gauges / speedometer fuse issue. It keeps popping with the speedo hooked up. Just odd. Probably simple as it has been with this whole truck.

Pending sale. Again. Next Tuesday it’ll either be sold or available again.

 

[letterman52]

Last of the metal work completed today for the rear sill. Prime and paint tomorrow. Then off to its new home.

 

[letterman52]

Also did a quick prime and paint on the other side to hold it over for whatever the new buyer wants to do. I left the tape lines so they know where the patch was.

 

[letterman52]

Finished up the rear.

Congrats your sale @letterman52 - exactly what I'm in the market for.
