New Okie from okc

[Ferguson]

Been lurkin for a bit . This is my virgin post. Tell you a bit about my set up. I drove this ole' truck through high school. "Papa" left me this '79 3/4ton long w/8 lug wheels. 2 years ago it was stolen and taken to Bleu Springs MO. Recovered ...I thought it would be great to put it back to where it was 15yrs ago.......good idea??? Until i discovered the crooks took off the vin numbers. So i bought a 82 SWB tonight it has a good 305 bad tranny which will be swaped for the new 350 motor and 350 tranny in the 3/4. I do need lots of body parts. Of course as many posters money is an object, I have to pay for my wifes 04' silverado and my hd. But, if any other okies or texans have some good parts give me a shout. The big thing i need is a bed if i can score one reasonable. If any of "YA'LL" are south side, give a hallar.
