HELP! Need to build a new truck...
I'm sure a lot of you have been watching the saga of my horrible wreck in which I now have a totaled truck:
http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=366796 Ideally I'd love to get my hands on a '69-'70 truck that may be in fair-to-good shape that I can possibly drive home. As long as it has a running engine and somewhat decent transmission I can put up with it to get it back to me - worse case I can figure out a way to have it trailered. No engine or transmission would actually be fine - I can swap what I have now plus a 350 rebuild into the truck and be all set. At the very least I need a new frame and cab. The spare frame I have is for a '69 C20 4spd manual and it's been messed with a bit, so there will probably be lots of grinding and welding involved here. I'd rather have something clean if I can get it. Also the cab will have the wrong hump in the floor - plus it's pretty much rotted out in the floors and rockers anyway, so I'm really stuck without a matching cab. I would love an auto '69-70 cab at least. Any help would be much appreciated. Otherwise I'm going to continue to scan the for sale trucks, craigslist, and the local paper and truck trader (which by the way doesn't seem to show our trucks any more) to see what I can find.
