63' complete for parts?
Hello all, I just rescued a 1963 Chevy 3/4 ton stepside long bed from a barn in northern utah. I am not sure if I am going to try to restore this truck or part it out. I am looking for some thoughts on the matter!

Re: 63' complete for parts?
It all depends on what condition the '63 is in.
If it's way too much work to keep it going, then part it out. Pictures would help .

Re: 63' complete for parts?
Hey thanks. Pictures to come soon. Its complete, typical rust at the cab corners, front fenders. The hood is good and straight, cab is pretty solid. The bed is almost perfect. It has these large rectangle fuel tanks on the sides. it has an inline 6 not sure of the displacement yet. the brake booster/ master cylinder is missing.
Current project is a 1970 K-5, crate motor, turbo 400, 3/4 axles, rolling on 36 in mudders. Mechanically restored just waiting on paint and body. |

No 63 should ever be parted. Scrap the other years to preserve what you've found. Let the banter begin! lol
