anyone else building a 57-60 truck?

i'm starting a build and im looking for cheap body parts and interior stuff. since im unemployed, its a budget build right now. i started from scratch and have a bare cab and front clip from an f700. the cab is totally bare, but i saved it from going to the scrap yard. anyone else building one? im interested in seeing some other builds too.

Not much around here in the "orphan years", you might get lucky in the '48-60 forum, our original chapter leader was amassing parts for a '58 half ton, IIRC, but not sure what happened to his stash once he passed on.

If needed, I have a late '50's/early 60's chassis (wide 6bolt pattern with floating rear axles) if you need it for parts, might be in the family you're working on?

i assume that you mean no cab right? im holding off on the chassis until i have the room to assemble it. Im renting a room right now, and the whole truck body is dissassembled and sitting in the back of my 73 crew cab. I really wish i had a place to put it lol.
