looks solid enough to me I'd buy it. You can get the skip white dist. for it if it's v8 for like $60.

Body looks solid, looks like it needs cab mounts though. I'd rock it.

$600 for a shortbed? And its 4x4 too it appears? And your questioning if its worth it? Keep in mind, shortbeds go for much more usually, just cuz they are short.

I wonder why? You'd think long beds would bring more cash than short beds. It does look like 4wd and has FF rearend too.

That's not a full-floater rear end, those are center caps.

If it's a 78 it's got a 12 bolt. Center caps wont go on a 14b ff. More than likely has 3.08 gears too, and maybe a LSD rear.

Shortbeds always cost more. Matter of supply and demand. I'm glad I prefer long beds too.
