Sounds like my crew. I paid $1000 with it mostly being in the shape you mention. There is not one straight panel, not even the roof. My biggest advantage was no rust at all.
I say buy it if it isn't a complete rust bucket

Its a F350 Shortbed? Thats an odd ball. I agree with everyone else, if its a minimal rust truck, you got nothing to lose at that price.

Rim color?
I have a 73 CC with facory steel wheels and original hubcaps. I have refurbished the hub caps and now I need to paint the steel wheels. Can anybody tell me what the stock color of the rims should be? Were they the same on all color trucks or did it vary depending on the color of the body? I would like to keep it stock looking. The rims on it look like they are in excellent condition BUT they are an odd light gold-ish color. The hubcaps are silver with lack accents. Thanks
