I'll buy the '67 if the cab is relatively rust free. If this truck is near Stephenville I'd think rust wouldn't be an issue.

Is the truck towable?

Are you cutting the cab up? if so how much for the dash drilled out at the window seal area.

Thanks,

Kev.

Just a little information on how I have done these dash swaps before. Maybe you already know.
I cut the dashes out along the cutouts under the dash pad. and leave enough for a little overlap for welding the new one back in. save a whole lot of misery trying to cut out along the windshield pinch-weld and using every cuss word out there.

Re: parting out 69 CST a/c cab
 

I usually cut right after the pinch weld so they get the whole dash but the whole dash haha ive done this 1 time

If using the proper drill and tools to remove spot welds it's time consuming but Iv'e never considered it painfull....These old trucks have to be restored instead of going to the crushers and one way to do it is to take the time and remove the welds and put them back together like the factory did.The whole inner and outter roof panels can be swapped using 2 trucks and done without having to weld the rear seam! It's only time.....Also welding is required at the rear of the top door openings when doing the roof swap....But yeah I would much rather drill to get the piece needed than operate a cut off wheel any day of the week...Not saying time can't be saved but if it were me I would rather something look factory even though it cant be seen after the final product is finished.Good advise indeed and very helpful in saving lots of time welding and fitting.

Also Iv'e never removed a dash out of one of these trucks so I'm in for it, I don't know if it can be drilled out or what has to be done when removing it and installing it. I know there looks to be bolts up under the dash that would have to be removed... Please advise if known..I also use blair spot weld cutters and they work wonders with a 300-400 rpm drill. Bump for ya take it easy and good luck on selling all the stuff....

Yes the bolts on the sides is all that holds the dash to the inner hinge panel/post. Remove them cut the dash out how you feel comfortable with and weld as required at the pinchweld or under the dash pad area.
Plus the few bolts that hold the pedal assy to the dash.
