I have recently re-aquired my old truck. Had thoughts of letting my local Community College Auto Tech shop have at it to fix up as a training aid. Then in 12-18 months I have a really fresh mechanically second ride. The little rat that I sold it to (never finished paying) has just plain beaten the Holy Heck out of it.
Quick list of rat's "improvements":
Removed shell and left it in the weather. Punched windshield. Removed, by force, sun visor. Cut the exhaust tip off so truck bed is singed (small spot). Never washed it. Removed all decals, but left glue residue so dirt and grime affixed to paint. Front rims caked with brake dust. Rears ok, never rotated tires. Removed wheel arch trim pieces. Sideswiped a pole. Probably blew the head gasket. Etc. Etc.
I don't know if it is worth fixing it any more.
So are there any parts that some of you ExPo'ers could use. I mean besides the sun visor.
Still not sure which way I'm going with this but if there is some interest in parts then I may go that route.
I'm in Southern California. No pics or prices. Gaging interest right now, and price might just be really low. Like show me your a organ donor and the part is yours.
