Your medium-olive paint sure looks pretty, what did you use?

very cool.i have been hoping the nephew of the original owner,who i bought the truck from and inhertited the old homestead in Idaho,where the the truck was for 25 years,would come across some of the original paperwork for the truck from the dealership.i have the build sheet but not the protecta-plate or anything else,sure would be neat to have whatever he might come across.i talk to him from time to time and i know if they find anything,they'll send it along.i am very happy with the paint,the second paint work.the first go-round was a disaster.it's single stage PPG urethane.my painter wanted base clear and i didn't so we battled back and forth about it.just like belly buttons,everybody has one and an opinion about paint.i prefer the look of the old finish on old trucks and cars,to me base clear doesn't look right but that's just me.take care.thanks.

It’s already been mentioned, the steering wheel and wheels are the most replaced items.
I tell people my truck is 90% original
When I bought it in ‘92, The Steering wheel had already been replaced with a Square body one, and the rims were White spoke.
On the engine, the carb and manifold are aftermarket, and it’s got headers instead of manifolds.
I’m about to refresh the paint, and replace the bed wood
Other than that, she’s factory
Not shortened, not lowered, not LS swapped, not tank relocated, not painted a non factory color, and the interior is not molested.
Whenever anyone asks if I’m gonna do anything, my response will is “Why mess with perfection?”

The bones are still original, but it has had a few additions. P.S., P. Disc, AC, and a few others.
The first picture is in 1985, the day I towed it home. The second is today, sitting in the same spot with 327,000 miles. It hauled 20 + loads of dirt away and no small amount of the materials in to build that garage. I had one lumber drop. I built the garage myself except for the door. No one in CA will sell a 8' door without installation included.

I won't make any excuses for getting rid of the split rims. It had 16.5" slotted aluminum wheels and several sets of tires before I put on the 17" H2 wheels. I've replaced the seat upholstery twice and to be truthful is beginning to show age.

Those low mileage, pretty trucks sure are nice, but I drive mine. The 2018 Ram 3500 is nice and all, but most days, sits where you see it with only 10k miles.
