Re: parts fpr my 1965
What year 1500 short bed? if it's newer than '87, it is of little use for parts other than engine, trans, the seat and the brake booster will work with my bracket.. What parts are you needing for your '65?

Re: parts fpr my 1965
A 71-72 1/2 Ton GMC or Chevy would be a perfect canidate for a five lug and disc brake up front swap. Bolt on fit.

Re: parts fpr my 1965
They aren't any better or easier than the '73-'87 front suspensions. In fact I believe parts for the '73-'87's are a little less expensive.
