Frame off restoration project. Garage kept since the start of the project. Due to a move from Georgia, I no longer have a garage and do not want my work to be ruined by the Florida salt and rain. My LOSS, your GAIN.

NOTE: the following was written for Fakebook and Craigslist viewers so no offense to those that know the process....
"IF" you understand the "Frame-Off" restoration process and the skills to see it through, this project will be worth your time and money. Due to the amount of window shoppers I will inevitably have to entertain, I will only respond to knowledgeable and honest questions. Reminder, this is a project that is at a great stage to finish. Due to the volume of silly questions I expect to get like "is it available," I will only respond to a valid question.
Please read the entire description!

-1972 351CID (engine taken down and cleaned, ready for prep work) New motor mounts
-Dana 44HD Front axle, Dana 60HD Rear Axle. Gear ratio unknown as that was going to be one of the last things of the puzzle.
-Borg-Warner T-18 top load manual transmission that was professionally gone thru by a transmission shop. New Tranny mount (4 Speed with granny low)
-Rebuilt NP205 transfer case with all new seals. new transfer case support bushings. internal gears showed little to no wear.
-All drive shafts were professionally balanced with new u-joints.
-Chassis was prepared by hand grinding every inch and all parts were cleaned with KleanStrip Prep-n-Etch (best stuff in the world for rust removal)
-All loose factory rivets or suspect bolts were replaced with "Grade 8 or Grade 5" bolts.
-Chassis was sealed with Magna Paints CHASSIS SAVER Gloss Black. (used 2 gallons) Initial coat was brush applied and then 2 coats were sprayed.
-All 4 corners have new brake parts except front brake calipers were reused. New front rotors/pads/bearings and complete rear drum hubs. I have the proportional valve. Brake lines will need to be ran.
-New Emergency brake lines are installed to center coupler.
-All 4 leaf springs and associated bushings were replaced with SD Truck Springs heavy duty rated leaf springs.
-8 NEW Ranchero shocks, Dual mounts on all 4 corners. Rear is complete, front is mocked up and ready for welding.
-Front steering "flat top" knuckles were sent out to be professionally drilled and fitted for "cross over/high steer"
-Cab and bed has ZERO dirt as it was dry media blasted and then I applied 2 coats of epoxy. (Speedakote SMR-260G 2.1 VOC Epoxy DTM Primer/Sealer Gray)
-Both cab floor pans and both door j-panels were replaced.
-New cab front mount bushings and radiator support mount bushings.
-The bed bottom has 2 coats of bed liner (Speedakote SMR-1000-K8 T-Rex Black Bed Liner)
