I was curious to see if anyone else ever bought a entire(or almost complete) truck for a few parts.I bought one for the front fenders,and the core support.Everything else was trashed for the most part but the fenders and core support were good

Of course...I kept the rest of the truck

I heard there was a 67-72 4x4 in a junkyard,they thought it had disc brakes,well it turned out to be a 71 shortbed 4x4.The truck I originally bought for the front axle turned into a frame up restoration.....
Anyone else do this?
