To all those who gave me great info on several magazines dealing with
classic chevy trucks, thank you very much. It sucks living in a rural area
that has limited resource info. Also for those of you that asked where
Beloit Kansas is, it's about 140 miles north of Wichita Kansas.
Also I have located an extra cab and bed. It is a 49 or 50 3 window. Bare
bones but straight with the usual floorboard and cowl rot. The dash has
surface rust but is not butchered. Doors look good but have no glass. There
is also a bed, side and front pannels appear strait but fenders aren't.
Tailagit is salvagable, not all bent up, but the skin is loose in one spot.
If anyone is interested I will take a couple pictures and post them on my
web page. Both bed and cab have been sitting on the ground for years but
might be cheap. I inquired about the cab for myself but havent gotten a
price yet. I thought about using the dash but not sure if its worth the
trouble. Can anyone enlighten me on what it takes to swap dashes? I also
though about using the doors because the more I think about it the less I
like the vent wendows on mt 51 cab.
Thanks again for the numerous responses
