I don't make it back that far. Maybe, closing in on ten years of FFPW ownership. A little longer than that since I turned my first wrench. I hope you don't have me beat there.
You used to be able to buy brand new windshield frames, windshield regulators, wiper motors and all the now hard to get stuff for a reasonable price. Since dealers were required to keep parts in stock for ten years, I guess you could get FFPW parts into the 70's. But, not now. And, a cab that sold 13 years ago is probably not going to be relevant to Mr. Bolyard's needs.
But, if you are willing to pay the price, you can still probably get most any FFPW today.
If someone wants to pay the price, I will send them a completely restored cab painted to their color. But, I think most of us are just looking to pay something reasonable even if we can afford more.
The trucks listed on the Salt Lake Craigs List seem like a real find. I'd like to look them over myself.
But, the nice cab in storage seems like it's part of an unfinshed project he wants to sell. The other cabs look promising, but have been sitting out and are an unknown quantity although he wants to sell all the cabs and parts as a lot.
