I needed a bed for my 65 as well as a passenger door and fender. So I bought a whole truck last night for parts. It came with some cool pieces like an underdash A/C unit and it has the window squirters. The frame and suspension are in great shape as is the cab. Just a few small holes in the floors and it's a stick truck. It has the trans still in it with a Hurst shifter. After I take the stuff I need the rest will be available if anyone needs parts in the Atlanta area.
The hood and core support are shot though.
Now I can get back to work on my truck.

It's all factory suspension.
The body is on a 73 Gran Torino chassis.

Is the core support in good shape. If so I may be interested.

That's a great idea. Did the wheelbase of the chassis have to be altered or was it the Torino and the trucks the same?
I agree, that truck looks too good to part out, but you gotta do what you gotta do. I like the stance of your truck as well.
