Crews and worthy rigs Around the country

I didnt post um but the other day I used my craigspro app to search all of Oregon and Washington to look for a clean 2wd body for an original patina swap. I search for "by owner" crew cab; oh man you east coast guys would have a freek out.. I'm pretty stoaked on any old strait axle crew and there were a TON of Fords, Chevys, and a few pre 94 Dodges. There's gold in them thar hills! I've gotta get my dealers licence so I can fly out at will and bring um back! You guys are missin out w/out one of these search all apps...

on a serious note on this... i almost bought a crew from a member here..
$300 with 1 tons gone, motor drivetrain gone... but had axles to roll it..
$1200 to ship to here...

was gonna do it... and next year im going to take $2k and find me a crew cab...

specific if you have read my other threads.... I NEED a 1980 K30 crew cab as they have a 12000lb gvrw.... then it is self inspect in NJ... FRICK U LIFT LAWS!!!!!

I dont want to go bigger with my truck... but I dont want to deal with inspection either... if i could get a crew and be exempt... id throw a 3" BL back on it and run it as she is....:thumb:
 
ummmm WOW...
someone buy this!!!!!

$1995!!!!!!!
D60 front.. 454!!!!!!!!!!

now see this is what im going to look for when i get the cash next year.. bonus time... (March-April)
 
looks like its a 2x4 and he is probably talking about the rear axle and would be wrong on that.

I have a 1980 crew I will have to look at the door plate and see what the GVW is. I thought it would be 10000 like all the others.

i thought it looked like it sat too low..

Ok, I just got an idea! So I've been looking for a clean "original paint" body to put on my frame and thus far only looking at srw trucks but if I broadened my search to duallys Id defiantly have some more choices.
1. Does anyone have pics of a dually with the fiberglass removed?
2. If I were to run bushwacker cutouts, (not really what I want but what the hey)
is the required "cutout" portion bigger than the fender arch that's left when removing the fiberglass?
3. How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood!!? :dunno:

No, on the dually bed it is cut back almost all the way to the inner fenderwell.

A woodchuck would chuck all the wood that a woodchuck could chuck, if a woodchuck could chuck wood. :haha:
 
Na, I want a cab and bed w original paint.. Ive seen a few out that way though.. I'm going to MTU school next month in Fla; maybe after that week I'll fly somewhere and drive one back..
 
That's either the 3 rd one of those I have seen, or the same one 3 times. The last 2 where still original though.
