desireable 59 parts?

[1964c-10]

a local scrapper has got his hands on a 2 ton 59 truck and is going to let me pull some parts off of it.

my question is are there any parts you guys need that you want me to pull?

also what parts are in high demand/desireable from this year?

i havent gotten a chance to check it out yet so im not sure of the condition it is in.

I know that if they have the "V" on the hood emblem they don't repop them a lot of guy are looking for them. and if they are fleet side and the bed side trim is in good condition they do not repop that either.

Any of the emblems would be nice.

ditto on the 59 V hood emblem and fleetside bed trim. If you have the time the dash for use to repair trashed radio knob area. Radio delete plate and "buttons" for the knob holes. Glove box door and latch. Stock front shock frame brackets. Big truck front clip is unique will not interchange with 1/2-3/4 ton. I think the doors and hardware are the same. Seat frame and brackets. Don't know how much room you have but if cab is not rusted (highly unlikely but some farm trucks were stored indoors when not used) might be of interest to someone. Frame and running gear is of not much use unless someone wanted to build a hauler.

2 ton trucks don't have fleet side beds gents. 1964-C10 I'd say just about the same parts that were considered desirable on most of our trucks. Doors if they are in good shape and not all beat up or rusted out. Dash parts that aren't damaged or corroded. Add to that other trinkets that one might put on a smaller truck.

Those big trucks usually were well taken care of and the cabs are in good shape or they were beat to death and there isn't much left that a guy would want to pull off.

i was planning to pull the hood and fenders and gauge cluster

im pretty sure it has a flat bed on it so no bed trim

thanks for the suggestions if there are any more or you guys are looking for a specfic part let me know soon because i only have a coupe days until it will get scraped.

thanks

your right I miss the "ton" and thought there were 2 59's

[jimig1]

I don't know if you will be able to or if the 2 tons have them but I need this part and it will have to be cut out some one hacked this one up

I'd say the complete cab, and the front sheet metal. Someone may want some good front fenders for a big truck. The hood is the same as the pickups. Rust free cab is the same as smaller ones, as is that rear panel bracket the one fellow wants.

jimig1 is that bracket you posted under the fuel tank?

the cab and fenders are in pretty rough shape so im not gonna pull them, and there arent any emblems on the truck.

what i have gotten so far:
grill
hood
gauge cluster
heater controls
glove box door
radio delete plate
door handles and cranks
cab lights
1 headlight bezel
hood hinges and springs

[jimig1]

it is under the tank

Check and see if they have electric wiper motors
