-all glass good except for rock chip lower right side of windshield, does not impair vision

-front end is a 1 ton straight axle

ELECTRICAL
-minor attention to the following:
I have to keep one finger on the ignition key tumbler when I want to remove the key, could be switch
housing
horn button installed on dash along with a toggle switch to control the turn signals
hood mounted chrysler indicators need new wire connected
I removed the brake light switch to rear brake light wire underneath along frame and didn’t finish
I bought a brake light switch and hard to find bracket that new owner will have to tinker with
When I did this the lights don’t come on now, they did before, also with ignition in on position,dash light comes on. I’m not sure if that was related, but could be.
I never checked heater blower motor or wipers, but I assume they work.

Water pump
New 2 barrel factory correct carburetor
Upgraded to Mopar Performance electronic ignition system
Belts and hoses
Fresh antifreeze and a full tank of gas

So there you have it. I’m being as honest to the best of my ability and thought of everything that I can think of that I still wanted to do, if it doesn't sell. I don’t think there’s anything I forgot, at least not major.
Truck starts right up, runs stron, shifts goo, stops, and rides like a Sherman tank.
