As I've discussed in a couple other threads, I've got a '94 F250 extended cab long bed that I've decided to invest some time and money. The frame is sound all around, and the drivetrain is the 460/5 speed combo. She's been bullet proof for me, and I would like to source a rust free bed, and possibly other body parts to slowly begin a mild restoration. Does anybody know a good source for Southern rust free pickup parts?

Might be better off snagging an entire truck and then selling off what you dont need?

Or possibly just cleaning up the new one and driving that, instead of dealing with your rust issues?

pretty easy to find a rust free rig like that on the west coast too.... Though finding just a bed that isnt used up might be hard.

People get dumb about OBS stuff so who knows. Maybe he's selling it for that.

I'd snag something like this (I know its a single cab, just the first one I found) Pull what parts I needed and sell/scrap the rest

Damn, that things too nice to chop up. That's a sweet old truck. Single cab is tough since you can't adjust the seat much, but for a farm truck that thing is awesome. Mine is an extended cab so you have a little room to move the seat. I only gave $2400 a few years ago though, I suppose these 90s Fords are "vintage" now. LOL!

Plenty of extra cabs out there as well. That was just the first half decent/cheapish rig that popped up. Just tryin to point out that depending on what all you are wanting to clean up on your truck. Getting a donor rig makes sense.
