There are a lot of little things I didn't put in, but I've touched every nut and bolt on this thing. I have other projects I'd like to focus on right now. If it doesn't sell, it can continue to sit and one day I'll give it some better sheetmetal. I also have a decent stepside bed in pieces, 2 more doors and a rear roll pan that could be sold with the truck. I'm not really interested in straight up trades but may consider one with some cash. Price is $15,000.
