spirit of 76 barn find
I work in the AG industry in wi. Today I happened upon a spirit of 76! I need to know other than door panels(which are spoken for) sorry what should I get off it he's scrapping it soon he said. I was thinking glove box door options list And maybe seat cover I. Rough shape but I think repairable and maybe some one might want it let me know ASAP please text or call if you own a spirit. 608-469-5959 I'm name is Wade. Ill be going back There tonight

Re: spirit of 76 barn find
If it has the front spoiler that would be good to snag.

Re: spirit of 76 barn find
Sooo sad to see such a rare truck rotted away. It looks like the door panels are all that can be saved. A moment of silence please...

Re: spirit of 76 barn find
Is it just an illusion, or is that front bumper in good condition too? Can't see all of it, but this end likes pretty nice.

Re: spirit of 76 barn find
I'd say that truck is only good for a few pieces and pictures now.....it looks like EVERYTHING needs to be replaced

Re: spirit of 76 barn find
After looking it over closely I've determined the major problem with that truck is the battery.
. . . The battery needs a new truck.

Re: spirit of 76 barn find
N2- that's no illusion the front bumper is absolutely perfect. Good eye. I've snagged it, the door panels, the solid back window, the glove box build sheet, and debating on the seat cover nit sure if its salvageable? But as for the rest its very sad, rotted frame. No floors what so ever box rot. Its bad. But welcome to Wisconsin. Oh I also got the white sun visors. The spirit specific parts will go on my brothers two tone blue 76 swb the bumper and rear window And frame horns will be used to Convert my 86 to a 74-74. I'm also debating grabbing the bonanza badges

Re: spirit of 76 barn find
I would snag the cover, its probably not repairable. But it would be a good example for an interior shop to make you a new one.

Re: spirit of 76 barn find
If I had said field find I don't think I would have gotten quite the attention I was looking for

Re: spirit of 76 barn find
How much more attention do you want? "Spirit of 76" dwarfs it
