That thing is sweet! The only thing that would make it better is a 290 with 4 on the floor.

Looks like a buy to me. The grunt work has been done. Good for the purest, good project.

It appears to be a one owner low mileage cream puff that never required any "grunt work". What does seller mean by "all original" ? I am wondering about the paint. Sometimes trucks just get completely repainted for a few worn and faded spots by overly meticulous owners. First year for white painted hubcaps was 1965, should be argent silver on '64's. I would ask for a photo or photos of the truck before it got repainted.

Very good idea. Anybody who restores a vehicle should have "before" photos, so we know what were really buying. If they don't provide any, assume the worst and do not buy sight unseen, these trucks require a personal inspection before purchase.
