MOTOR
350 that came with the truck (not original). Not for sure what year. It appears to be original ‘orange’ on it so I would assume a 70’s motor
4 speed transmission – granny gear

CONS
-Front ¾ seat is broken. It had been rigged previously. Seat upholstery needs to be redone.
– No passenger, middle or rear seat
-All “Custom” moldings are included except right side lower
-Directly above drivers door jam inside is rusted through. I am not for sure if this is a bolt in part though.
-Normal rust on bottom of doors and elsewhere BEFORE it was reworked. I would suggest replacing bottoms of doors with patch panels if you plan on repainting. Though it was minor, it is just a suggestion.
-Also, if you plan on repainting, you will need to replace the tailgate lower. Inside lower is gone, but is fine for this patina. Top does not latch properly but has no problem staying closed with the new struts.
– The front windshield should be pulled and the underside of the roof in front of the glass will need to be replaced. Patch panels are available from what I saw.
– New floor pans not professionally done, but are solid.
– Missing one “Custom” emblem on sail panel
– I would suggest replacing slider and stationary seals along with door channels. Seals have been replaced through
– new door seals so doors do not close easily

If you are local and can bring me a new lower tailgate I will repaint the outside of one for $150.
Must be dropped off within 2 months of purchase.
