is the truck just like you want it or are there things you want to do /add? that may increase your cost but not necessarily the price if u sell.

id check for any sign of rust bubbles and use a magnet for bondo check on cab corners, check floor and kick panels, around running boards/fender area

also the truck may not go over 50 mph for long with the factory running gear.
Thanks for the info. It was a daily driver, bought new and then parked in a temp controlled garage in 1968 and had been there ever until my buddy bought it and tuned it up to be on the road again. Seems clean. Probably wouldn't do to much to it right now.
