I completely disassembled the truck and painted it with a color that has some red pearl mixed with it and a variety of colors to make it up. I replaced all the body mounts and suspension bushings. Cleaned & painted the frame. Installed tilt steering column, power steering and power disc brakes in the front. The truck had an electrical fire before I got it, so I ran new wiring for everything from the headlights to the tail lights. The steering box is from a Toyota and the brake rotors are from a 74 Ford 1/2 ton. Instead of buying the conversion kits, I opted to piece the systems together. I have tested the brakes and they seem to work as they should, but have not tested at a high speed stop. The steering will need tweaked and more testing done. The truck needs exhaust from the headers back. The tailgate needs to be painted to match the truck. The truck is not perfect and has "war wounds" but it will be a nice driver, not a show truck. I had a medical issue several years ago and the truck has sat in my back yard inside my portable garage so it does need to be cleaned up. The title is clear and would be a nice truck for the right person. Shipping up to the buyer to arrange.
UPDATE 6.29.2018 I did notice that the transmission front seal appears to be leaking some. Probably caused from not driving it for so long.
