That's a nice truck and it'll go for good money.  Surprised there isn't a reserve on it.

Clean truck!

But a little bit too black (interior included) for my taste, feel it like the Bat-Bull.

Jeff - I'm not sure what is going on, but I downloaded your gif from the email and inserted it just as I would have a regular jpg.

I'm not sure that that truck has original, as in never had a re-spray of any kind, paint.

There are tell tale signs that say otherwise. Overspray on the radiator support decals, missing tailgate letter/decals etc...  

My 1981 has a lot of original paint on it, but I wouldn't say the whole truck had original paint. Original color maybe.  I've replaced the tailgate twice for example.  The engine has been painted at least three times.

Original paint can mean different things to different people I suppose.

I like the height, but I don't like the TTB lift kit.
