Damn, had a good month scrounging parts for my '62 K10 build I'm
Going to start next year!
First, picked up a very, very clean Dana 44 with disc brakes/open knuckles for $125. It even has nice paint, and no rust pits on it.
Then I drove out west to Dieseldude4bt's place and bought a divorced Np205 with crossmember and shifter, Koenig PTO winch and mount, the PTO unit for the t-case and the driveshafts for it. It's all as complete as can be--it'd have taken me years to piece all of it together.
Then on the way back home, I stopped at another place and he had a factory grille guard that's straight, for $75. Hard to find piece, in any condition. I also got a pair of rear tow hooks that aren't factory, but I think they'll work well--they're smaller than the huge factory hooks you find on busses and dump trucks (I've got a pair of those), and they have the bend in them like factory hooks. Two mounting bolts instead of three, so I think they'll fit on the back
Of the truck with the step bumper and receiver hitch easier than the huge ones.
At a third place, I found a set of perfect wiper arms.
A couple months ago, I picked up a set of factory front tow hooks (warthog tusks!), the the front of the truck will have the tusks, a PTO winch and a factory brush guard, and a cut-down-to-fit '61 C60 grille to clear the winch that'll be recessed into the grille to keep the bumper from sticking out a foot.
The hardware was the last stuff unneeded to find to get the project going. The rest is just bonus!
