Cool jimbosprint 1972 C20 - the good, the bad, and the ugly

Here is my new truck! It's a 1972 Chevrolet C20 in mostly original condition.

The good:
California truck with almost no rust, good frame with mostly straight body. Original 350 engine with TH350 transmission, power steering, power brakes, factory AC. Enigine runs strong and starts easily. Interior, dash and gauges are in great shape. Odometer reads 23,093 making me guess it has only 123,093 original miles based on the condition. One family owned.

The bad:
The transmission leaks like crazy. Fluid in the top pours out the bottom in a short while. This is my first priority in making the truck drivable. Also the fuel gauge not working and the driver door lock doesn't lock from outside.

The ugly:
There is a substantial dent to the passenger side of the bed, but it appears to be a slow moving accident with a tree or something, not a collision with another moving vehicle.
