Bought my first crew cab Ford for $900.00 last year; 1979 F-350 460 C-6 Dana 70 limited slip with 410 gears Tilt steering 77,000 original miles 1 owner no rust anywhere. Been sitting for 15 years. Missing driver's side drip rail trim. Looking for that and complete cruise control setup including steering wheel. When I stripped out the interior I noticed stress cracks around both rear cab mounts. Is that common? There is no rust on the drip rails. I got a pair of 1971 429 truck heads and an Edelbrock Torker intake. I plan on a rebuild and change the cam and add dual exhaust. Any suggestions as to whether or not the heads will work and the cam selection. I plan on adding a Gear Vendors overdrive.

rear driver's side lock and handle assembly. That inlcudes the rod and and the related components.
My windows work fine, it's the damn door lock and handle configuration.

I would normally say I will ck my local JY that has 2 CC's, but someone came in and bought both of the rear doors. AFTER the yard boss told me specifically that the rear doors on those 2 CC's are NOT for sale individually or in a set either, unless you buy the whole cab. I think some got in there and pulled a fast one on the lady in the office when the yard boss was gone.
Any chance you can mod regular door stuff?

Just picked up this 75 crew on a standard cab highboy frame. Has a sweet homemade bed on it lol. Came with the original doors for this cab and tons of other parts. Has anyone ever seen a power steering box like this? I don't think its a Garrison or Bendix. Ive never seen anything like it.
