Mike, Mostly it's not sold. It appears to be well worth the asking.

Maybe he needs to raise the price. I'm not kidding. (I had a friend who was trying to give away some puppies. Raised the price to $5 and they went like hot cakes...er hot dogs.). Sometimes when something is priced too cheap, it raises questions. Or maybe the locals just don't appreciate the slicks.

If your refering to the early style bed, it looks out of place but is correct. Other than that unless it's a rust bucket $500 is a damn good price.

I was going to say grill, looks like a 61? Other than that, hell if the 292 runs, I will take it!

Really Nice truck for 500 bucks......

The bed is correct for 63.

The 292 has been converted to dual exhaust

It has the Rare CC aluminum trim

Standard funky west coast bumper in the rear.

Correct grille and bed, the CA black plates are original to 1963.

Nobody has sharp eyes. The truck has two different bed sides. Look at the rear wheelwells unless he has reworked the drivers side...

I think that is an optical illusion. Looks to me like the left side has been mangled from a possible blown tire?

Yah thats definitely custom by crunch. Wheel coming off will do that. Still well worth 5 bills.
