I think they are asking a bit to much we were able to buy a entire "parts truck" for $500

The seller, IMO, knows what he's doing. He's using shadows and bad camera angles to hide the places our eyes go to first. The cab corners appear to be very heavily bondoed. And then he conveniently has that block of wood on the inside to block your view there. Then the floor pan picture is very difficult to see, but I can see that at least the driver's side pan is rusted out. That grill piece is from a 51. The price would be about right if it were in better shape. What's wrong with the cab on your truck, or are you just looking for a spare?

Yeah thanks for posting it. Maybe somebody will see it and ****** it up at a good price. It's definitely repairable in my opinion, but it's gonna take some work. I've noticed a decline in the availability of those cabs in the time that I've had my trucks. As a matter of fact, the cab on my 50 is worse.

A magically moving block of wood (or ammo' box, or something). Also "chopped original grill" is a considerable oxymoron.

I think that would be a cab to look over in person before buying. Pictures leave a lot to wonder.

Seems to be a whole lot of extra holes in the right front kick panel area - Look at the inside view from the drivers side.
Too muchie dollar
