made the mistake of going to "just look" at it
the side windows are broken ...
its old and white and rusty and BEAUTIFUL.
even has a spotlight
200$ later it will be delivered to my house (hopefully friday)
what a deal.

expect more pictures soon

Dang, that's an incredible deal! A nearly complete mid-40s and delivery too for 200 bucks! Wow!

I've been looking a little lately and haven't found anything near that bargain price! One guy I contacted today wanted 600-700 bucks just for a cab (47 Ford). Wish I was closer to that RRR member in S.D. who was selling all those cabs at $500 each. That's still not as good as this deal, but it'd be easier to swallow than $700. Anyway, congrats on the score and enjoy the build!

fenderless flat/stake bed ... looking at using an mid eighties
jeep frame with the old jeep 6 .. or maybe using a not so new astrovan with the 4.3L v-6 ... i know you guys arent so partial to the IFS but for some reason i like it or it doesnt bother me anyways-- plus this will most likely be my daily driver... and i dont exactly have a lot of money

cant really say much more without it sitting at the house frame on hand except it will be cut up ... just tall enough for me to fit in it comfortably and have just what it needs to be legal... except maybe a stereo also lol

i expect you guys will have a lot of input on how it turns out.
