My favorite color combination! Too bad for me, it's got a thirsty 9-10 mpg 454 in it.

The dash cap looks terrible. Also, in one of the underside pics you can see wire nuts on the taillight harness.

Otherwise, nice truck, but it would need some serious in-person scrutiny to warrant purchasing it.

Sure there are some things that could be done to the truck.
However, excellent choice for a great driver in my opinion except for the thirsty 454.

The dash cap don't fit right and its been repainted before.

Me, too. I can barely breathe.

You can see where they taped off around the emissions label. Black is too glossy.

I thought the bottom (steel portion) of the dash was supposed to be the primary color (blue, in this case). I could be wrong though.

Fremont built truck. Fremont has been known to go their own way on some of these minor details.
