Just bought my first panel. Trying to decide if I should part it out or sell it whole (no title). Wish I could keep it

I bet that was a great looking truck when it was new. Dont see the panels too often with the side trim and chrome front and rear bumpers. Looks like it also had full size wheel covers.

I agree , I'd love to restore this one. Hopefully someone restores it or it gives life to other trucks . Just happy I saved it from the crusher.

I agree. That has to be a pretty rare bird. Chrome & stainless wing vents, stainless windshield trim, front hood and fender trim, 327/TH400, & Power brakes.

That is a cool rig and with fresh paint and the trim this would look killer

Wow that trim piece on the passenger side has to be ultra rare! It's a panel only part!

Great looking truck back in the day!

He has it listed for sale here on the board. Im happy its is so far away and there is a title issue. I would have snapped it up and put it with the rest of the stuff Ill never do anything with haha!

I would love to see a picture of that one brand new at the dealership. Defiantly ordered up as more than a basic work truck.

Looks like that was a great truck. Hope someone can restore it to its former grandeur.
