damn the donor truck is awesome!! please tell me its rusted to hell.
No, it is actually in pretty good shape overall. It was free and I needed the parts so it got stripped for the greater good.
It has diamond plate bed rails, tool box, running boards, and tail gate cover. The interior is pretty hashed up but serviceable. I think the only big problem is the cracked fender flare on the rear. If you look real close in the picture you can see where it is cracked. My wife hit a railroad tie pasture post when turning around in the yard. Oops! LOL. She was pretty upset about it.
It has an older removeable fifth wheel setup in the bed, A/C, etc. I am thinking about Bobbing it and making it a bigger off-road rig. Not for a long time though. I will probably get rid of it before I get that far.
Oh, and it has some scraping on the driver door where my mother-in-law hit a post at the gas station and pushed the mirror bracket into the door. There is a theme there....mother-in-law, her daughter, female, hmmm... I may get some flame for that but I couldn't pass it up.
Cummins swap, Dana 80 rear, Ford 60 on front ,airbags...............just Saying
I won't crush it. If I decide to get rid of it I will put it up for sale. The problem is time and money. I won't be working on it for at the very least a year or so more. Probably more.
Do you think anyone would want just the body? No drive train at all just the body and wheels. I dont think it would sell well around here.

I think if you put some axles under it so it could be moved then yeah somebody wuld be all over that thing for the right price it looks clean
