I believe that almost everyone here will agree that if you have access and the junk yard has them, you are better off buying them there. They are generally a lot less expensive and you can use SEM to paint them the color you want. A price check would be a good idea. Also, fitment and quality from the yard is also better.

There is a wrecking yard within 2 miles of me that just received a Red over Silver Bullnose 4X4 Single cab...I'm assuming it has a red interior given the exterior paint scheme. The hood is painted with a Rebel Flag....why, I have no clue, as Ohio was a Union State, DUH ! It is an all original Single Cab XLT, 8' dual tanker... except for some random rim/wheel swapping (left wheels do not match the right wheels,..imagine that), and of course the Johnny Reb hood. It seems to be an original, unmolested 302/C6 truck as far as drive train goes. I called the yard and they are willing to let it go for 300. It's mine, paid for on the phone with a credit card (yeah, I know, But I have trust in the Yard). I pick it up tomorrow.

When I bought my truck off CL it said the inside was trashed.
Also when looking on CL for my truck I found a 2nd one that the inside was good but the outside trashed, roll over. By the time I bought my truck the parts truck had some parts sold off it but for $400 less motor & doors the rest I can use.
So check CL it might be easier to buy a complete truck for what you need.
