Man that thing is looking good. I would love to restore mine but don't have the space. Right now I'm trying to just be content keeping it running and can hopefully sell the house here within the next 5 years and get another place with some property and a shop.

The door jamb bottoms are finished now too. Should be able to install the back window and the interior seats and the door weatherstrips very soon. :D

My dad built one of these from the ground up. It was the crew cab, short bed, with a 390 and a 4 speed. It was red. He sold in the early 90's for like 6500 dollars, the lived just down the road a little, and just sold it last year. He sold it for 6500 dollars and the purchaser was in new jersey. :hmm: guess they must not have many bumpsides in new jersey.

The bumpsides are few and far between here in Jersey, for some reason. At least in northern New Jersey where I live.
