Re: save this body

I typed in 1950 chevy truck, I was thinking about picking it up but I only need one fender so hopefully some one else can get it and make it in to some thing, looks very solid

Re: save this body

Whammer, make sure you look up both 1949 chevy and 49 chevy. (but do it with all years)
They bring up very different results.

Re: save this body

Looking at the add again this morning I was thinking "now there is a candidate for an S-10 swap if I ever saw one."

Re: save this body

we were texting back and forth a bit yesterday. he's pretty short with responses but here's what i got from him.

"yes theres rust. no other pics right now. cab is probably the worst of everything".

i asked how bad the cab was. "3 out a 10 probably"

i asked the bad spots on the cab. "corners, floor, body mounts, firewall"

Re: save this body

Probably why it hadn't sold yet then. Still I don't think the price is out of line all that much for the parts I see there. It does look like they cut the bottoms off the fenders to match the bottom of the cab though.
