Wow-we got SoDaks here!-I'm in Rapid City.
I'm afraid the stuff yer sellin muckmuck is stuff I already have tho. I do need a rear half of a Left Q panel, if you know of one, front fender eyebrows, the top chrome strip that is rivited to the grille, headlight bezels, and both bumpers. Good driver quality is what Im after definitely not gonna be a show truck!

I bought my 70 Jimmy from my Ma who lives in Spearfish in 2001, so it spent 16 years livin in Lawrence Co. Also it was purchased in Spearfish new and Ma bought it in 71, but she lived in Rapid back then. That truck saved our lives the night of the 72 flood (34 years ago tonite)-got us thru some deep water, and that Jimmy and our lives was all we had left June 10th. Ma was born in the hole that used to be known as Terraville, between Deadwood and Lead. Shes 83 now and is after my ass to get it back on the road so she can drive it again, if I can lift her up in the seat! Gotta love them ol' mountain girls!

Sorry about the history lesson-just tickled to see someone just 45 minutes from here!

Later---DAC
