there are some holes to fill and there is a tweak in the dash, but it should be relatively easy. I am proud of myself that I got all the glass out in one piece. lol

Your cab definitely is nicer than mine, I need to replace the front half of the floor. Your photos are a great. I opted to tear the front clip apart then do the cab. Its in pieces now but had to cut off over half the bolts as I was just snapping them. sprayed they heck out of them but to no avail.

Well today is the day I decide that my truck is done. I haven’t listed many updates and I assume that is normal when people finally just get sick of working on the same damn project!! It’s certainly not a show truck and I tried to stay as original to stock as I could. About the only thing that isn’t is that I switched it over to 12V. I am the 3rd owner and it is still a complete matching numbers truck.

Some hi-lights:
complete engine rebuild 226, rebuilt 3 speed transmission, rearend, all new glass, all working gauges, rebuilt vacuum wiper, heater, complete breaking system, headliner, seat recover, powder coating on numerous frame pieces, and many other items. I want to thank all of you for your help over the last few years for your advice. I had months where I would y touch it, so glad to finally cruise around in it. Ironically I just towed it down to the Phoenix,AZ area and now I am going to sell it. It’s been fun to learn a new skill with limited tools, so I have to thank this board and. Few good craftsman! Enjoy!

I'm sorry to hear that you are selling the truck. It looks great and someone is getting a nice safe good looking truck. Thanks for the pictures.

Is there another truck project in your future?

If somebody is interested I am listing it for sale. It’s on Phoenix Craigslist, or contact me directly. We just moved here to Surprise, AZ and just put a bid on a house and need a down payment, so this is the first thing to go to make that happen. Asking $19,750. Jesse - call or text 509-949-4320 or email pezsox@gmail.com. Thanks folks

That's a nice looking truck. The old "work clothes" are still holding up nicely!
