This parts truck came home today. I am trading weight for it at the scrap yard.
This truck is rough but had a few decent parts. To bad the cab roof is dented up in back.

Will post pics later today- picked up a '65 LWB 2WD No eng/trans, but pretty solid/older resto truck. Will be a good daily driver.

I wonder what it hit, the damage is high on the hood, but nothing on the grill - yikes.

I used my old truck to haul this Honda Rebel home, does that count? The bike is for my daughter before you guys start insulting my manhood...

[tincan1966]

This is the '65 LWB we got the other day. Got a chance to drag it home Saturday morning. First pics are as we brought it home(we did get a hood, it was off tho) Then a couple pics after a good dose of Purple Power and a scrub brush under the hood. Finally, we got the engine bolted in. Nothing fancy, just a 305 TBI from our '91 olds we parted out. Keeping the TBI since I have the parts. stil undecided on trans, have the manual trans bellhousing bolted in and thinking of using the 3 spd, than maybe later doing a T5 swap.
This is a budget build- the goal is 4 weeks and under $1500. leaving the body alone except for replacing the missing lower front fender bolts. Brakes are very good, but will get a dual master cyl and prop valve.

OK bright two more home the 65 cab is 98% rust free wish it was BBW but very nice bed is junk and got the original 283 torn down with it and stepside is a short bed no brakes but they say it runs turns over good makes 7 in 4 or 5 weekends

Got this to b the guts and glory for my 66 burb build

[travz500]

well got a call yesterday about a 65 but I think its a 66 from the pics gonna pick it up sunday cant go a weekend without getting one I hung up from talking to him and said not sure why I just bought another one but the price was right and got a number for a 4-5-6 LCF that looks decent from the road and think its still usable

[70inline6]

Spent way too much for it, but I've always wanted a 60...and all of the trim is there. The floor of the cab is one of the straightest I've ever seen as well...Bonus! Needs the carb re-sealed and a good bit of body work touch-ups here and there... but it drives nice.

[travz500]

i dont care for the 60-63 door knocker cabs but i would say I really really like how that one looks all original very nice good find usually the ones I find are shot but i have a couple nice ones I have drug home gonna go get a 65or 66 long stepside tomorrow its like a disease someone calls and I say ok

Good idea. What year is it and how did you settle on what year for the donor? What engine does it have. Are you going with all of the drive train? I am thinking about similar idea.

[travz500]

Here is another one I got this weekend nice 65 long stepside with nice interior

Great looking truck, I sent a buddy up from Cary to go look at it when it was for sale. He said it was super straight. Has some nice trim options on it. The glovebox script, rear cab trim and side trim are highly sought after parts.

[1963c-10]

Heres a pic that you might appreciate also....has the same trim options

Very cool dealer parts-runner there, thanks!

The truck's lt ft wheel cylinder blew out driving around the yard last week, so I redid the brakes Saturday. Good thing that didn't happen on my test drive !! The old 235 is noisy as hell when it's cold but gets quieted down after a couple miles.

[aerotruk63]

Nice truck 70inline6. Almost completely original.

Love the Door Decal on the 61. Precursor to the Check the Champ promotion in 63. All those dealer window posters too. Great photo!
