I saw a F350 super camper special with out the spare tire door in the side of the bed.
Were they offered with out that door ?
Or maybe somebody deleted it while doing some body repairs.

Looks clean...something just doesn't quite smell right, and I'm not sure what. A steering wheel and gauge lenses shouldn't look like that on a 60k truck. But the seat, carpet, engine bay look pretty real clean.

^^^why didn't they clean up the engine bay.......doesn't look like original paint...besides I can't get used to that color anyways....but apart from the mileage, no ac, it's standard, and only the am/fm (which some like for originality)....cool truck, but not sure worth all that coin.

Clean truck and looks nice. I do agree that a few issues raises some flags like the steering wheel that Ben mentioned and the gauge lenses and as Ken said the inner fenders look like crap. Also, I don't think the weather stripping was replaced. The close up pic of the side glass shows some wear on the weather stripping so I'm guessing the rest is the same probably original. If it was a $6000 truck than I wouldn't be as critical because the rest looks very clean. I'd still want to take a fine tooth comb after it though, but than again I do that anyway when looking at these trucks. Truck has alot going for it though.

Engine is clean, body is less to be desired......a little high in price maybe? How rare are these stepsides?

You don't see them very often. I love them, and want one sooooooooooo bad. There's a body shop in town that has an old bump side that's just been sitting for the better part of forever, good bed on it, just haven't been able to pull the trigger yet. From the research I've done, they weren't very popular back in the day because they weren't sporty like a short bed flareside, and they took away valuable hauling real estate from standard style side bed. These days, more often than not, people think they're ugly and just swap for a standard bed, either crushing the flare or letting it sit on the ground to rot. I've only ever seen a half dozen or so in person, and less than 100 on the internets.
