Haven't decided on the color yet, but its the original color of this truck. Figure I have time to figure that all out. It actually has a really straight body with very little rust repair other than all the obvious surface rust. Only appears to be painted twice. Back bed panel and tailgate will have to re replaced along with one bed support, but cab is good minus cab corners (1 side) and the immediate floor. Out rockers and inner still look good as do the cab supports. I'm sure like most of them I'll find more as I go.

At least its safe from the crusher, and if I were to change directions from a fleetside it shouldn't be hard to find a new home, but its really growing on the family, so it'll be around for awhile.
