Body is pretty good very minimal rust. Bed is super solid. Tailgate is not pretty but is there. Wheel wells are mediocre but easily could be redone properly with relative ease. The factory engine cover (doghouse) will not work. The 5.0 is larger and taller. The “roll bar” is only a hoop and is not welded it mounted.
Dash: the speedometer is an early Bronco unit.
This is a great start to a hardcore off-road rig. Most of the hard work has been done. Truck is set up to run 40” tires with ease. Finish it to your liking.
