**EDIT** The rear seat is also available now. Wont work in the '40. :doh:

I bought this vehicle for the drive train and the seats. Frame is toast due to rust. I'm keeping the springs, axles, and tires for my '40. The front seats are staying but the rear seat is for sale too.

Front passenger side door was crunched pretty bad but the front window was down so the glass is safe. The windshield is gone along with the main glass of the rear passenger side door. The lift gate and rear side glass is safely out of the truck. The fixed glass for both rear doors is also in one piece and still installed. I removed the pane of glass from the front passenger door before I scrapped it.

Driver-side doors are both good though one might have been bent a little. No kinks though. I have no way of checking the fit since I can't be sure the roof line is true. If it is bent it isn't very much and could be gently straightened out.

Rear passenger door has a kink in the window frame but the door body is good. As is the fixed pane of glass in it.

All three doors have some evidence of rust at the bottom and the exterior has been painted with some kind of bedliner by a previous owner so I can't say what it looks like under it except that it looks OK through the inside.

All the manual door innerds are available. The two driver side doors are still assembled (including glass) as is the rear passenger side door (excluding glass). The trim and interior panels have been removed to sell as a complete set.

Everything else is for sale. I can't find prices on 'mud with my phone. Looks like every one has PM'd prices so I really couldn't do research. Tell me what you want and I'll use eBay to try to get a fair price for you.

Check my album for picks. If you need better pictures, let me know and I can easily get them for you. I will also upload front door and rear seat pictures soon.

Sorry, but I'm keeping the engine along with the trans, t-case, axles, wiring harness, tilt steering column and seats I'm putting it all in and under my 1974 '40.

I still haven't decided on the ps system. I prefer the Saginaw plates and then getting the components from a junk yard or whatever. I am desmogging it and removing the AC. Just didn't list it yet because I haven't removed the compressor or smog stuff yet.

I do need passenger-side engine mount though. They are both the same size on the '60. I need the shorty. :doh:

Alright everyone. I've uploaded pictures of the wheels from this '60. They are all the same quality. A little rusty in the normal places but could clean up OK.

I'm thinking $80 a piece but please tell me if that's off-kilter. They do have some rust but not bad and they may clean up nicely. I've seen them as high as $170 for just less than perfect ones.

EDIT: Sooooo $80 seems a little high. o_O How about more like $50 or so? I could use steel wool, I suppose, but it might mess up the beautiful chrome that is completely rust free.

Do you have any body parts? I am looking for the front fender vent grills and gaskets in good condition.
Thanks
 
I have those, one is slightly broken. I was planning on using them on my 40 to add ventilation when I put a v-8 in there. However, if the price is right ... I will do some 'mudsearch (hee, hee, I made a new word) and see what that kind of stuff is going for. However, if you come up with a guesstimate before me let me know and we will see.

How's that for creative circumvention?
 
No I think I'm gonna hang onto those for a little bit. One of them is cracked anyway. I was going to epoxy it and paint them black. I've been planning on putting them on my '40 to help vent hot air out of the engine compartment. I'm thinking somewhere close to the fender or so. I'm eventually going to put a V-8 in the truck so I'll need the ventilation ... I think.

As far as other exterior body parts, Only the LH quarter was salvageable and even that was eaten up with rust at the bottom. Plenty of body putty topped with bedliner. I am going to put a list together soon instead of just sending everyone to my album.

Sorry man.
 
No worries. I have a couple of other leads. GLWS.

Tail light housings. RH is trash but the seal is good. LH is decent so is seal. Lenses: RH gone LH cracked.

Thanks..
my DS lense is cracked (similar damage to this pictured lense of yours) and my PS is damaged missing a chunk.. housings not needed.
Need a grey dashpad...your is in better shape than mine, granted.

I'll try to find a grey one...

good luck with the sale.

I'll have to look at it. If it is the one I think you are taking about it is fine. I won't be able to look at it until Friday night though. Sorry. I stopped getting email notifications for some reason.
 
I really want to put the tilt steering in my '40. But that may be where I connect to the stock steering. Give me a day or so to look it over.
 
I am looking for:
Grey or just a good complete carpet set

Air intake hose (fender to air cleaner)

Windshield washer reservoir

Rear cargo area panels

Drip rail molding - rear piece only

Antenna

Grey dashpad - no cracks

Thanks
 
Hey quikchevy. I have the plastic that was in the cargo area but the upholstery panels were toast. Driver side wasn't even there. If you want the tan-colored plastic that around the window, I might let it go separately from the rest of the interior trim.

Are you interested? I don't have a price in mind ...

I really need to do my homework and get y'all some prices up front so you know if you even want to ask about them. This is a great place to sell, I don't mean to break any rules. I am just super busy with internship and kids and breathing in and out. :confused:
