Very nice find! The ONLY rust is on the drivers side floor. My wife is tickled about it. It will likely end up her driver. 71 uncut half cab, v8, 3 on the tree. Best of all, an hour and half from home!

Indeed it is. She wants an automatic though. This one will be kept mostly stock. No lifts planned and certainly no cuts. We are so excited! Doesn't look like the bulkhead has ever been out. It has some crappy seats in it that will need changed. Prolly do discs for the front and add power brakes and steering.

Found it yesterday morning on Dallas craigslist. I was praying nobody got it before I could see it. The guy said it had basically no rust which I couldn't believe as I have heard it so many times before. Timing wasn't the greatest but he was willing to deal and there it is on my trailer....

Now I HAVE to stop looking.... Lol
