Half that stuff is aftermarket or not rare.

Sheet metal you can get aftermarket.

I meant removable and reusable stuff.

If you have any of these non rare non removable and non reusable original parts I would be happy to take them off of your hands.

I'm not too far away from Fuquay almost daily - if you see anything in that list up above, let me know and I'll go grab 'em up. :lol:

So you ask what to look for? And someone tells you? Then you tell them that the items are not that rare? Ok.

Then why you asking? If you know the answers already.

I was just saying that some of the things he listed arent rare. I want to know what is rare.

What about the Cowl?

cowls aren't rare, every truck built has one.

where is this junk yard I live just north of you and could use a bunch of small stuff?

What's up with that? You ask for advice then disagree once advice is given. :confused:

Yep...looks like a trend.

AM radios might be rare but not worth squat. I had to beg someone to buy mine for $15. Funny but AM/FM's sell for up to $250 back in the heydey....I doubt they'd get that far now.

On another somewhat sarcastic note....if you already know what ISN'T rare, then everything else would be right? :mm:

Choke deletes. CST horn buttons (67, 68). And rare is probably the wrong word. We're talking mass produced pickup trucks here, not Ferraris. Valuable would be a better word.

Aftermarket is junk. Original rust free GM sheetmetal is rare and much higher quality and better fit than the cheap thin gauge aftermarket Chinese trash.

as for sheetmeatal? the 1967 fleet bedssides and the front fenders as there are no markers to have to fill in.

Re: Rare parts?
 
well its a truck that only went under minor changes in 5 years and being a chevy almost 1/2 the parts are used on other vehicles also
+ theres about 6 catalogs that you can build the truck out of. unless you want oe matching year parts nothing is rare.

Half of the stuff listed is rare, the other half is removable and reuseable. It's a good list that answered your question.

Don't forget shoulder belts.
