I've got a 75 highboy with a real rusted body not exceptional just more than I want

I was thinking get a body off an older truck since as far as I know it's just as much work with either kind and they swap straight across and I wanted an older one

Anybody know where I can get one in so cal don't care about dents just rust

There is a guy in Clairemont that post on Orange County CL. His name is John 858 205 7537 and he parts out 73 and later F100 trucks.

Right now on OC CL there is a couple 73 and later trucks being parted. One is super cab.

Good luck
Kenny

I was wanting a 67-72 body and I did find most of one by looking in OC CL
​​​​​​
Its to my understanding they will swap straight across right

As far as I've read on here at FTE, the cabs yes. But there will be a 2" gap between the cab and bed. Bumpside long bed wheel base is 131". Dentside...133".

I got a flat bed from a 71 to put on it turns out the fine print said f600 and it's way too long so it's got to be cut anyway

Yea, with that much metal, you'll have enough for 1 1/2 F150 beds.
