69 shortwhell base for parts? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I wondered upon a 69 shortwheel base pickup in pretty good shape considering. I was wondering if I can use the rear quarters on a Blazer.
Or might be someone that needs another project..
it was in a barn covered in dust, but other than the rear bottom of cab and lower front of the front fenders in pretty good shape. Hard to see dents through the dirt. but bed and all looked solid.
