It needs some body work, mostly the edges of the box where stuff got dropped on it but the rest of the truck is good as far as that goes. I did the drivers door last weekend, welded in some patches on the door that Glen gave me and hung the door last weekend. I also took the old dash out and painted the one I got from Glen. It turned out pretty good, a couple of coats of primer and a coat of paint and viola, from black to red. There are some new pics in my 78 gallery if you're interested.
