Re: pull and save deals.
Steve . I can part with a set. I have at least 5 or 6 of the 61-63 window trims. Plus I have some small stuff to get to you. I will put together a nice one for you and post some pics.
Hantke. This stuff is in our local u pull it yards. Clean hoods are not hard to find here. I don't grab any more 62-66 hoods or 69-72 hoods. I have to many. I have a 2 car garage full of tin. Enough to make 8-10 trucks. |

the truck I'm after is in a collectors back yard, he has a 65 DD, a 63, and a unknown (to me) mostly covered as well as a 73 chevy. he said he has 4 more (for a total of 7) in other places to, but not actively trying to sell, so it shouldn't move any time soon, and his main project is one with factory spot lights, so he'll be busy on that for quite a while (long enough for this college kid to pay off the hospital bills and get the money together again i expect)

Re: pull and save deals.
62-66 GMC hoods are what you want. I have some really nice ones. Since I don't actively sell tin. There is always one available for local pick up. Knee knocker doors are like tail gates and 60 window trim. I have a hard time parting with them. But if you catch me in a good mood i would probably let a pair go. Barry

Re: pull and save deals.
Hantke. What is your hopeful budget? I come across lots of nice drivers in good shape. I have not checked Craigslist lately but there are usually 3 or 4 for sale locally.

Re: pull and save deals.
right now I'm paying off surprise ER / surgery bills (just got metal screws, pins, and plates in my arm a couple days ago... yay...) and need the rest of them to come in the mail, but i agreed to do some work for the guy (learning experience for me, not required to buy the truck though) and its mine for $900 which seems like a fair price, i figure i'll have the doors + hood and a new bed floor (debating whether or not i should get wood) for under $2,000. Plus a new semi local friend (i used to live two blocks down the road) to talk to about these trucks.
and thanks for the heads up, i like the '60 hood from chevy better, but the 62-66 gmc hood is my favorite. budget depends on work though, school starts on the 22nd, and this whole not using my left hand thing really messed me up on finances due to not being able to work, plus, no income

Re: pull and save deals.

Nowadays, as you say these scrap prices are diminishing what is left of the old cars, trucks, ag equipment and machinery that should be saved for historical reasons if nothing else. It's all about money. The first pic is a rust free mid 50's Ford tanker truck at a local scrap yard where no parts can be bought. The second pic is a '58 or '59 GMC 270 next in line to be crushed at a local yard that does allow parts to be pulled, but no one was buying anything off of it. They only hang on to them for so long. I took this pic with the crusher seen through the windshield. I hope you don't consider this a hijack, BarryGMC, great buys you got there! DAC
