That white truck is nice, but driver nice and somedays I really kick myself for not just buying it. Somehow I convinced myself a true NAPCO was in my future. If you want more pictures there are a couple more I can post or send.
Unless I missed it somewhere, is your truck a 71 or a 72? What are the trim and color plans, solid paint Cheyenne with parchment buckets maybe?
I'll see if I can remember to get a couple of pictures of the inside of the frame. If I remember correctly the frame is '70 and the cab & bed are 72. It is titled as a '70.

Interior will be black because the new black dash pad and door panels came with it. I have a couple of options for the seat as pictured below. The '69 Suburban came with an extra black pickup seat so I can use it or recover the buckets and use them.

I didn't ask the brand. It was $95 cash & carry. That is the 5th one I have bought from the same shop. They have worked good for me and I like the shaded & tinted ones.
