This will be my daughters truck so I have about a year and a half to finish it up. All it needs is front and back bumpers, side windows, carpet on the inside, and a new paint job. The cab was just painted but not crazy about the color so chances are it will be candy apple red.

Jack, a good place to dream and drool, but asking price is usually well inflated.

Some of the ones we looked at that were 100% done were in the 12 to 15K range. I wanted this one seeing hoe it has all been upgraded to dics brakes with the frame of an 87 3/4 ton under it.
