Ah but the factory cb radio and it's components are rare for these trucks. Although I do agree with you Slik. The prices some of these guys want for parts for these trucks is unreal. Like your rotted out oe front fenders aren't worth $300. Heck I've seen doors for these truck where the whole bottom edge was gone and the guy wanted $700 firm for the pair.

A frame in the garage is a great idea.
