I'm considering buying my first Ford, and need some info. What i'm looking at is a '63 F-100 Unibody SWB that is real solid and straight.

However, the tailgate is pretty much un-usable, and the core support would need a couple days worth of work to repair.

Here are the questions I have.

What year core supports will work on this '63?
What year tailgates are the same as what I have on this '63?
Did the unibody trucks come in both SWB and LWB or just SWB?
During 61-63, were all trucks unibody?
What kind of quatity should I expect from the re-poppers? I don't have much sheet metal to buy/repalce, but will probably need a core support and possibly floors if i don't fab them myself.

Other than ebay and CL, what sites are good for member to member classified ads? I looked at the one here, and didn't see a whole lot of stuff, and nothing in this year.

Thanks for any help you can provide. I'm planning to build this truck over the winter, paint in the spring, and get it on the road by summer. The overall look will be a muscle truck; good rake, meaty tires, gun metal gray on black two-tone. More than likely i'll start a build thread here as well.
