original panels!!!! are they worth it????
 
im getting tired of buying crap yea it might be cheap but now its mine and i have to make the choice of saving it or letting it go to scrap mean wile the hole in my floor bord keeps getting bigger and yet i still have to fix that all thow the heater core is out if i crack the window the heat off the exhaust is nice lol but i need help.

where can i go to get good pannels that fit and having a crew cab makes it that much harder to find parts plus living in indiana dont help much because of the road salt everything in the junk yards are beat up or rusted out

ps. i HATE bondo and people who pile it on more then a 1/16th of an inch to cover up a huge dent/rust hole..... it makes me sick

i think i got lucky im picking up a 1988 cab and doghouse for 600 and all the guy is doing is poping it off the frame and setting it on my trailer all he wonts to keep is the grill and collom because its tilt he wonts it for his brazer

the only rust is the drivers rool pan ... im surprised it still had the inner fenders rust free

its gana be nice having ac and a heater core that works lol my truck never came with ac
