Check out my new parts truck!

We picked up... actually it was my wife who made the trip and hauled this back home for me, she is truely the best! . It's the parts donor for my '76 CC. A '79 F150 Custom, shortbed 2wd. It has 73k original miles, 300ci with the auto, A/C, PS, PDB. NO RUST anywhere, it was originally black but was painted red at one point. This is such a clean little truck that's been sitting 5 years, its currently not running but shouldn't take much to get it going. Only cost $650.00.... Kinda shame to pull it apart, but I have to remind myself that's what I bought it for... the nice original Ford parts. Take a look... the box, front fenders, a super nice black dash pad (no cracks!), and a few other parts are going on the CC.

Holy crap you stole that truck, what a find! Keep your eye out for more, I know in parts you got easily 3 times what you paid.

Actually they're Wyoming plates.... I could make a "Texas" sticker to cover up the Wyoming name and you can have custom one off Texas tags.

I'll let you know after I finish with it... my priority right now is getting my CC's body work and paint taken care of before the end of summer.

I call dibs on that dashpad if you decided to sell it. And if the other guy backs out on the door panels those too.

its looks good to bad you going to part it. but just me would like to see all of them on the road instead of being parted or crushed not enough old vehicles on the road to many new ones out there.
