Just went back and looked again. Saw the black paint on the shocks springs and lines hahaha. And it's the same paint that's on the dome light surround and part of the dash trim. I noticed he altered some of language. Detailed, original factory colors, etc.
Anafiel- I read a carfax on a dealer car once. It had reportings for some DMV events and state registrations, as well as some larger chain repair shops and dealer service.
I always wondered what we'd do without you. Now I know, have dark feet

I can tell you those carfax items are easy to scam. My wifes Mustang was bought at the end of 05. It is an 05 model that was formerly a rental. It had 20,000 miles when we bought it. The front bumper and hood had been repainted. The fax showed it was unwrecked and original. I thought it was funny that ford must have had their automated painters put a thumbprint in the clearcoat of the fender along with overspray on the headlight when it was shipped new.

Nice looking truck but documentation would be needed for the price he wants. A vehicle without all the original documentation is with the claims this guy makes plus all the flaws not to mention the paint looks way to good for factory.
Did anyone notice the rockers? they don't look quite right to me. In that they look like they were rusted & repaired.

It's hard to tell for certain but it looks like the power steering cooler's coil (on the front traction beam) has been painted black.
Yes, the bed bolts have been painted over, and I don't understand all the copper-ish color underneath. Not sure if it's just the lighting or what, but why do we have both copper & black shocks & springs?
If this sticker was original:
I would expect it to be faded & cracked, like this one:
The ashtray.... I would expect the metal to look like it does where the lighter would go.
The brake lines have been painted
Have the master cylinder cap & retainer been painted?
There used to be a picture out there of the underside rear. The outside (easily-seen) stuff is nice & black, but stuff in the center shows its true age.
This one shall do:
there should be an engine ID sticker on the front of the valve cover:
There might have been a "Do Not Pry" sticker on the plast power steering pump neck
If the spare tire is original, it will have a date code molded into it.
A picture that used to be there showed the inner side of the left-rear wheel. the outsides look nice, the inside looks like I would expect.
Overall, very nice job. It very well could be a barn find, and he just had it painted & detailed.

Some of the trucks of this era were shipped to the dealer without rear bumpers. The dealer would then install a bumper of the customers choice; typically a Fey bumper. I don't recognize it as a Fey bumper though.

Nice looking truck, even if it has been quoted as:
"The entire truck, including the engine bay, has been professionally detailed within an inch of it's life."
I believe as others has stated, that this is a barn find. Which possibly could have sat for years not driven, then given touch-ups and maintenance. Not 100% original, BUT: still a nice looking truck.
