Looks like someone spray bombed some primer all over it and attempted to cover up the original lime green and after giving it a pretty through inspection it looks like they just threw it together to sell, bolts missing, wrong bolts installed, etc, etc. Now if I can just keep from going overboard on it and taking it apart into a million pieces...as if I didn't have enough to do...here we go again... 1968 Plymouth GTX 1974 Dodge P/U Long Bed Stepside 318 2019 Ram 2500 6.4, auto, 4WD
