It does not have a headliner.

How about the seat belts? If those are nice that's a big plus.

I'm going to pressure wash the belts and see how they come out.

Rear is an Eaton HO52. The original went south on him so he replaced the center section with a 4.57 or a 5.14 he couldn't remember which one for sure. No transmission.

This isn't a for sale thread, and you need to be a premium member to post a "Want to Buy' post. I need to see what I want to keep off of it for my projects first and anything I decide to sell will be posted in the parts for sale forum. I will make a note of what you wanted and let you know when and if I post those parts for sale.

Thanks,
LockDoc

Oh wow, I wish I'd have a chance to buy something like that. Are you going to build it, or too early to tell?

Went and brought the truck home this afternoon. Here are a few more pictures. I am probably going to part this one out but not going to list anything until I get it completely dismantled and figure out what I want to keep. For now I know I am keeping the seats, radio, sway bar and bed sides. Not sure what else.

The drivers side seat back was tight against the gas tank so the mice decided to use the foam in that area for nesting material....:(

Thanks Leon, the pictures were just what I needed. If the light has the gm logo is my only other question.

I think it just says "UNITY" on it Dale. It think the bulb is a little smaller in diameter than the others I have. I will double check it tomorrow.

I’ve got a unity spotlight on my 68, there is indeed a metal tab on the top of the bulb retainer that says GM if I remember correctly.

A guy called me yesterday and asked me if I wanted to buy a '69 parts truck. No motor or transmission and no doors but It has an extra hood. $450.00 with title. Not to far from me so I said I would come and look at it. I was pleasantly surprised.

I bought it.

Is the centre section between the buckets factory. I notice the spid says A58 Bucket Seats where as trucks with buckets and console say A50 as I've never seen a seat like the one in your truck. Looks like buddy buckets centre piece with the newer style buckets.

These look like correct individual bucket seats for a 69 that someone added a center seat to. Maybe a console delete truck?
Lots of good parts there.

Re: Bought this today

Thanks Leon, I'm still interested in the rear end, drive shaft, and front springs. The low gear is perfect as Sally's got a 4:56 under there now. I just dropped in a new big block and have an RV THM-400, just need a drive line and a full floating rear that wont twist up when I hit it with 600 pony's...Let me know how much and I'll cross that river and come help you pull them...Thanks, ~Michael~

The guy I got the truck from gave the engine to a friend of his. I don't know what the difference would be.

Doc I've got to ask since no one else has. Is that driver's side rear wheel in as damaged as it looks in the photo?
It has been bugging me since you posted the photo.

I had to look twice at that picture after I posted it too. There is black paint under the white and the white is peeling off. It makes it look like there is no metal in that area...:)
