Anybody in the western Washington area have a rust free bed for a 73-79 short box? I am in desperate need of one before the body shop paints my truck this month.

Please send any leads you may have... Thanks!

Joe.

 

where in Western Wa are you?

there is a (pale yellow I think) truck behind a chainlink fence in Gorst



I've sent you an email with info.

 

delete, info sent in Email

 

Thanks for the lead.. I'll check it out

 

if Joe dosn't go for it,

I'll post up the info (hope someone jumps on it) :secret:

 

Joe

did you get out to check the truck out?

 

No I didn't get out there... I appreciated the lead though!

We picked up... actually it was my wife who made the trip and hauled this back home for me on Monday, 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. 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.

nice find.

too bad I don't see anything on it I really need


you should post pics of your truck

 

I've got some pics in my garage... going to have more in the next month as the project progresses

 

Thats a good looking truck. If there are parts you want to get rid of let me know. I see a couple parts on it that i could use
