What parts?

I wanted the whole truck. It had a straight-6 but it actually ran! This truck wasn't as rough as the one I work on in my driveway and was for sale for $200. Just one more time I wish I'd had cash on me at the time!

I know it's not a slick but I rescued it so I could work on my slick.

yes the frame was bent, but just the frame rails, nothing else.... i bought a parts truck a few months later with everything i needed and just swaped the front sheet metal, even the front of the frame cut off and welded on, not by me... by a frame shop in town, thats why my truck does not have the correct grill for a custom cab, i feel good about saving this truck from being parted out which is what the seller was trying to do.
i just went to look at the motor to put in my 65 and bought the whole truck from him.
