The sheet metal of this truck is in excellent shape(perfectly straight) with all the panels fitting very nicely together.Notice that this truck has only natural patina due to weathering, but you can add your own touches as you see fit.There is a small ding in the crease of the front right fender(see pics)…easy to fix if you want to “slick” the truck.This is the only ding in the sheet metal.

All the suspension/steering components of this truck were rebuilt/replaced. This truck is lowered properly with Early Classic components in order to maintain the correct geometry for proper handling and excellent ride.

Overall, this is a beautiful truck that is extremely nice and super clean with a lot of character and personality.This truck was built to be a shop/patina style truck, but the sheet metal/body on the truck is in such great shape it is ready to block sand and paint if you want a traditional show truck. There is one small ding in the crease of the front passenger fender(see pics) and the front bed petition has a slight bend…these quirks add to the overall appearance of the patina style, but if you want to “slick” the truck, they will need to be addressed. If you like the shop/patina style trucks, this one is super nice.It was not just thrown and pieced together, and if you see it, you will realize the attention to detail that was taken with this truck.If you have detailed questions about anything with respect to the truck, please do not hesitate to ask.I understand that it is difficult to buy a truck by looking at pics miles away, but please understand that I have sold through ebay for years now with great success and feedback. I encourage anyone interested in this style of truck to come look.Most vehicles look better in pics than in person.....and trust me, I having driven countless hours with only regret and disappointment at the end of the venture.... but I promise you will not get that experience with this truck.I guarantee the truck looks better in person than in the pics. I am not trying to hide anything on this truck and encourage anyone interested in a C10 to come look. You are more than welcome to send a 3rd party inspector to assess the truck and make sure it is described accurately.If you have any questions or want other pics, please don’t hesitate to ask.Serious inquires only!
