THanks...other sources you are the man regarding this kinda info... I found a 24k mile orig, one owner, good body, very minor rust which I have already started to replace with new metal. I even have the orig key tag from the dealer...basically I've got a very straight clean truck to work with. Too bad the owners son painted the entire truck with cans of spray paint and did a terrible job...he even paint over the window rubber gaskets and the chrome trim badges...must have been a teenager.? Normally I street rod these old trucks, but this is absolutly so origional, I want to put it back to showroom condition and not change a thing. But it does need some work. ALready done all brake master and wheel cylinders also. I've got some minor (I hope) work to do on the 225/6 but it starts and runs fine.
1st, I needED someone to confirm they split the 65 year group from 4 to 2 headlights... I was getting very confused doing research on the internet. I got that confirmed. I have the 2 light version.
2nd, I need a good rear bumper and brackets. I could take mine to get straited, but then the brackets would still need to to heated and reformed.
3rd, need a wood bed kit
4th, what was the headliner like....mine is gone?
5th, need a good shop manual...sounds like the Sweptline version would be fine.
6th, nned some new sun visors
7th, window channel felts....haven't tried Roberts or Steele yet however.
with those few things and new paint to match the orig enterior paint, this will be like a new truck with only 24k miles. I tried to sell on ebay before I started the work, but never got any serious bids.
thanks in advance for any help.... |
