I wrote a long winded post and deleted it because it was too long winded.

To me the truck is overpriced for what is there and the total condition it is in.

The paint is shiny but not the paint job or color you want.
The engine runs but it isn't an engine you plan to keep.

Only a serious inspection and possibly documentation with build photos will tell you the exact condition that the body work under the shiny paint is.

That is paying extra for several things you won't use in the long run.

Repairing the dash is either several hours of work on your part or several $$ out of your pocket to have someone else to do. The suspect gauges are just $$ out of your pocket to take care of and a small amount of time.
The leaking heater, your wife is thinking ac if she is like my wife. My wife already spent her time riding in a hot truck in 100+ weather on seriously long road trips though. To repair that one could be spendy for what you have though.
The wood bed might be sand and re-varnish if the wood can be sanded down but for me it doesn't add extra value as it is.

The main thing is DO NOT get caught up in the concept that this is the only truck like what you are looking for in existence in your price range within a reasonable drive from where you sit.
Do the research and check prices on comparable trucks and see what is out there and what is going for. Not those mega $$ show ready trucks but trucks that directly compare with that one.
