That little detail about the paint should be included in the ad . It appears like it is being sold as an all original truck .

Here's a few things I've noticed about it: the rockers should have some wear from getting in and out (so yeah its not original). Also the front bumper sure does have a tilt to it...

Anthony,
I missed it the first time I looked at the pics but look at the door latch mechanisms. Painted over. It is still a nice truck . Probably still worth a good amount but since it has been painted, I would have to see it in person to buy it . It has been painted ,and I think the dash bezel is from another truck because of the woodgrain, but it is still nice looking . Most people will tweak a vehicle to their liking and this one looks nicely done. If he took it to Yezzi's house for 12 days the price would have gone through the roof already.

Yeah it is a nice truck... and very tastefully done I do agree for sure. I'm surprised there wasn't the extra time spent to detail up the engine compartment... and to add a new armrest and dash pad. It does look great in the pics... kinda like mine, then you get up close and see all the flaws ;) Your old 73 was the best "original" I had ever seen.

And yes Yezzis engine revamp is PERFECT... he could make some nice $$ doing that for people.

Even though it's a nice looking truck, After studying the pics I see what's been mentioned already and a few more things that are questionable. This guy would need to have documentation proving what this truck is and that's the original mileage to get my money.

Looks more like a "Desert Kings" resto to me.....

that truck is from/near "bondo alley" thats what my dad said they called down that way back in the day.;) i remember there was tons of car haulers parked on the side of the road and several nice old cars down that way. We used to go down there to see my great aunt when i was younger.
