I like siting up hight like you do in a B-model, but for some reason every one wants to made them lowered. below are 2 photos, one of a B-model body on a 1 ton chassis and one that has had the wheelbase shortened

Truck looks great just the way it is. I like them up high as well. Looks like it has pretty nice sheet metal.

The body is in really good shape, just some minor surface rust. One small dent in the passenger fender right above the bumper. The pass side butterfly hood has a 1/2 inch tear in the sheet metal where the hing mounts to the center. The bad problem is the roof of the cab. The cab light seals have leaked and the inside of the cab above the sun visor is rusted out pretty bad where the water has collected. I think i can just cut it out and replace it, but thats in the future. Other than that its a great survivor. With 38,000 miles on it, the mechanical parts are good and tight, the motor runs like a sewing machine.
