well chances are if the truck has a good body its still going to be on the road, there is no sense in ripping apart a good truck. I see this happen on monte carlos all the time. Chevelle guys think monte carlos are just parts cars and its sad

i plan on swapping the majority of the body onto my truck.my truck is fully loaded so i wanna keep alot of the options it has.the reason i want a truck with a good body by that i mean not rusted out........a few dents and dings dont bother me.my truck just has some rust i think would be better off to replace with a whole part rather than cutting with a torch especially since im not much of a welder to begin with.im trying to stay in my realm of ability.

youre already in a region where hardly any rust should even exist, at least not enough to call rust if it were here, i think im missing something here..

just curious,,.

the truck spent the first 10 years of its life in the lower midwest/upper south region of the country then in 1984 the truck was taken to arizona where it remained until i bought it in 2001 its been in Las Vegas ever since.the fenders,inner fenderwells are in need of replacement so that is why im looking for good rust free straight parts......i can deal with minor dents and dings just nothing that would fall apart in two days or is bashed all to hell.

I saw one this morning on the corner of LINDA and WILSON in PAHRUMP. Doesn't appear to have a motor, and the doors are off of it. It's sitting in a field. That's all I know about it.
