I am picking up my first classic truck this weekend. Its a 61 unibody! I couldn't be more excited. I have had several old vehicles and I'm working on a 65 mustang right now but I'm gonna put the mustang on hold while I get the truck going.

Admin works nights. If you don't get anything soon let me know and I will get in touch with him.

 

ahhh ok, im sure ill get one eventually

 

Hood side emblems are correct for 1961/62, but the grille is from a 1963.

The ribbed moulding below the back glass was added by a previous owner, as it was only installed with the wrap around back window, which your truck doesn't have.

 

I didn't think the grill was right but I knew the trim was for a big window truck. I will be removing the big window trim.

 

I hope you are planning on using the light bar LOL

 

Ill trade ya grills!! Might even be able to give you a headlight

 

I want to bad!!!!


I want to sell it to help pay for the car.
