Yeah let's see some more photos. I'm looking for as many trucks as I can find so I can plan my rebuild. I'm picking up a replacement bed this weekend. Got the interior pretty much gutted. Just need to get the steering column out.
 
Well. Saw the truck. It’s a mess. Definitely a project. Missing the bed which will be tough to source a solid replacement without going the LMC route. Looks like the front fenders were replaced at some point. Stamped made in Taiwan which is a give away. Rebuilt 360. Runs ok. Brakes are garbage. Transfer case needs looking over. Couldn’t read the markings but it should be a np205 which is bulletproof. Manual trans. Shift pattern seemed like a np 435 and not a BW19. But I’m no expert. Clutch is shot. Cab mounts are rusted through which is common. Cab drip rails look solid. Interior needs gutting. He’s asking around 3k. Seems a bit steep for what needs done. Will be a fun project to do with the kids.
What were they asking? Found an all original 72 for 18 2 years ago. No rust. List of electrical issues but it ran. Mechanically everything worked. Kicking myself now for not buying it
