hi guys

Hi guys, Sorry I haven't been able to respond to your inquiries but, work (&life) have been pretty hectic recently. FYI, I'm parting out my '65 as I simply don't have the time now nor will I in the immediate future to build a truck. Better to have these items go to a good use rather than just si...
