    I picked up another 61 three window today. It's going to be a parts truck. I really wanted the narrow trim. It's in pretty good shape. Had some other goodies that came with it too. It has a 69 250 with a three speed top loader. A nice pair of 67 doors. Good paper too. Happy to get it.

    It looks much better than it is. It has a lot of rust in the footwells and front fenders. Both rockers and rear pan are shot. The black paint is hiding a lot. The left rocker may provide some patch panels but the rot has started. The bed floor is nice and the nose looks good. I need the bed floor for a 67 I have and the nose for a 61 five window. I may even save the roof as it's in very good shape. I prefer three windows over five windows any way. It's a shame. It's a very straight truck. Just too much rot. I was hoping I could sell it as a project truck. I really just wanted the trim off of it. Then turn it. It was cheep tho. I couldn't turn it down. There is enough good metal on it to make it worth my while. Both front doors are very nice. The best I have out of 6 pairs. Has a decent early doghouse too. It came with a pretty nice rear bumper. I'll get a lot of good parts out of this one.
