Hey Barry!

The body is not all that bad honestly, the stupid Digital camera does it no justice.

This is not a DEMIL (cut uni-body) and the body is almost perfect except for the battery box that had been eaten away by a old spilled battery.

She is suprising sweet everywhere else other then the front passenger side fender thaat is bent a little bit and a small rust line on the passenger floor.

All ver easy to fix with some light welding and a pair of pliars...LOL

What are you building???

I'm building a 1950 Ford F-1 pickup, all stock. I spent 22 years restoring Military trucks. Started with a 45 ****** MB, then Dodge M37, 2 GMC CCKW's (43&44) a 41 1/2 Dodge Command car and finally the 70 M-151 A2. Got tired of olive drab and the politics of a club and decided to come back to civilian stuff again.
