Looks like the link only went to one picture. Chris, if you can view it let me know and I can provide a link for the other pics, one at a time.

Man, wish I was closer, think I counted at least 3 or more F-2/3's at least 2 with express boxes, one set of long running boards, and not to mention at least 4 nice cabs.. Plus front sheet metal..

I will be going down to look at these old turcks sometime over the next few days so ... please advise me to what are the most collectable pieces you would snag.

I am a 61 to 66 fan and do not know the terms you use so color and description of the rust will be helpfu. I do not know what an express bed is but I do have a measuring tape. What is a COE?

I do not intend to take any frames unless they are valuable.

It is a two hour drive one way so that will limit the number of trips I will be making. Being old limits how much work I will do when there. I will be taking a cutting torch to burn off bolts and nuts.

The express bed is the 8ft stepside bed on the 48-52 trucks. Any parts of the box including tailgates and fenders are hard to come by. the running boards off the same truck is also hard to find.

Even though she's new, that COE's right handsome.
