Anyone recommend parts stores in OR or WA?

Travelling through Oregon, around the Portland area, then north through Seattle in a couple of weeks and wondering if there is a good place to stop and buy body panels such as doors, fender, maybe a tailgate, patch panels, etc. A place that is dedicated to these trucks? One place that comes to mind is Frank's in Olympia if I happen to be in the area. Looking for OEM or aftermarket.

Look up Dans Classics on Morrison Street. I would bet he is closing out a bunch of stuff.

Open Saturdays last I checked!

Don't know how far out of your way it would be but Mark McIver in Meridian ID is a dealer for Auto Metal Direct panels. He works on a lot of C10's, photos of his work are impressive.

PM Mel at Classic Bowtie in Portland. (Link below) He has lots of parts. Plus if you are going through the Bend area there is a guy who lists on C/L with a large amount of stuff.

Re: Anyone recommend parts stores in OR or WA?

If you want to drop in to pick up parts, it is a good idea to call a few weeks in advance. That way we can be sure to have your parts here for you to inspect and pick up. WES

I agree, when I checked it out earlier this year they did have some good looking doors there, trim and other things. But, they were in the works of closing. I believe Dan sold the place and they were trying to get rid of alot of things, idk if they finally closed the doors yet. I was there in March.
