The paint is original. One fender was sanded and primed to show the metal condition. The body is laser straight and will require little to make ready for paint or wrap. There isn't a ding or dent on it save the tailgate in small areas. There is a crack in the windshield.
The undercarriage is similar with minimal surface rust (and very little at that) see photos. It's a Texas ride!
The interior is rough but complete. A new interior is available on eBay, Dash, door panels, kick panels and seat cover. It has a bench seat.
The headliner is super sweet as are the visors. The gauges are complete. This is a factory air truck. I have all the mounting brackets. It has a condenser and evaporator but the rest is missing. The fan is functional. It does have heat. There is a metal patch on the passenger floorboard from a leaking heater core that was replaced. (see photo)
Like all carbureted vehicles, she's cold natured. Once warmed, the performance and power is second only to the space shuttle. This truck will pull a house down. No leaks or smoke. Super solid suspension that doesn't pull, sag, sway or bottom out. She sits on the original 16" factory rims with brand new 235 85R/16 tires, original hubcaps included.
The performance is down right scary (but good scary). Unlike the little squirrel powered roller skates we drive today, when this she demon takes off, suddenly, time travels actually seems possible.
The 4X4 has manual hubs in front that must be turned and locked. (Takes 30 seconds) Once in four wheel drive, you will be able to leap small buildings with a single bound.
All the heavy lifting has been done. Everything is there in terms of trim, body, and running gear. A super solid one ton.
