1968 C-30 dually longhorn mutt......Just about complete

I put the replacement windshield in it and the tinted rear slider....WOW...that rear slider looks great with that dark wood in the bed! Now I can put the cowl seal and the wipers back on it, re-install the under dash AC and I will be done for now. Been driving the wheels off it.....all 6... working the quirks out of it. She gets a lot of looks. It can be had if anyone is interested.

Red oak with 3 coats of black stain and 4 coats of clear. If you want black strips I would get the ones that come black. Mar-K has them.
