Re: Back with a square Body this time.

Lol, I knew I was gonna hear it from the purists

Couple comments: The paint is not original, it's a dealership lacquer tape & shoot that was done in 1980 when the factory paint went to ****. I will say it is nice for a dealership paint job from that era but it's super thin on the hood and there's tape edges everywhere (to be expected). Plus grandpa had a camper shell on it so there're 6 holes drilled into the top of the bedsides, easy fix but obviously will require paint work, on the plus side the camper shell usually means no heavy loads, gravel, etc so the bed floor is purrrrrrrfect!

If the paint was original, I'd be restoring all trim and replacing all the rubber.

And yeah, those floormats are freakin hideous!!
