Off 220 near Franklin-Henry County line.

Was just up to Roanoke the afternoon. Nice rains. Nice boomers when we got back home (between Stuart and Martinsville)

Looks like this is near that used lot at Fork Mountain.
I'm on the north end of Roanoke. We have had several lengthy deluges for the past couple of hours. Gonna have to mow. Again.

I hate to do it but this panel is getting cut up this week, I'm going to cut and save the rear quarters and rear doors, It really is a decent panel but I have found panels to be a hard sell, parts for panels sell great though.

Post up the parts you don't want for sale and link it. Like you said panel parts move.

Kevin I'd love to have that panel of yours. I just can't afford to buy it let alone pay to have it transported.

IMO the build of a panel is pretty much the same as the pickup from the frame to the front clip there it stops. The biggest difference is the difficulty of the parts, (rear doors w/all parts, running boards, rear bumper) than comes the daunting body work all those large straight panels require to get them back after years of use doing all sorts of tasks.

IMHO there isn't enough of that first one left to make it even a good parts truck unless it has a good title and the guy will take about 1/2 the asking price. It's missing the most difficult and expensive part, the rear doors. I agree that the body work is a daunting task if there is much rust or the panel specific parts are missing since there are no rear replacement panels available.
Kevin, seems a real shame to cut yours up tho it looks solid.

It really is solid, but once I pull the rear doors, cut the quarters off and all the nickel and dime parts its worth 2-3 times what someone would pay me for the entire rig.
