I did all the work myself, except for exterior paint. Front of truck was painted in a carport thingy with a plywood floor.I almost s--t when i dropped my cab, doors and front clip off.My buddy finally opened up a little shop and we finished bed in real paint room. After Hurricane Rita went throuh in the middle of it. The black is almost semigloss,i usually paint them more of a eggshell black. I built the seat out of a 98-99 tahoe -sub.second seat and i covered the original door panels to match. I installed a old air unit, that is why it has non air controls and the plastic glove box. The truck is the originalcolor med red #514 or #544. the inside glove box door is still original paint. I sold it with 17x 8 tt2'sand about a 3/6inch.drop. I was going to run tailpipes and never got around to it. I sold the truck with 212 miles on it at Goodguys and the was the last 12 that i put on it about 100mph around the track on sat.evening.I sold the truck to help fund my new 40x60 metal building that i just put up.I out grew my 30x40.I have started another 70swb that will be same quality that will be for sale. The truck was stock 350,700r and 373 gear.It was hard to let this one go so quick but i needed to finish my shop. I usually put a couple thousand miles on them first. I prefer 68and 72 swb anyway. The guy put the air ride.wheelsand steering wheel is the main thing that he changed in last couple of months. I like the way that it sits alot better than when i had it. O well now i am broke again and no finished truck to play in. But i got a new shop to start all over again.
Sorry i got carried away, just got excited when i noticed it was my old truck. I do not even have any nice pics. of it. Maybe i can get him to send me some.
I sold the truck for $25000.00 and thought i did good.

You did a super fine job on it and your price is more realistic than what he is asking.
