Looking for a parts truck
Asked by Dylan Dec 07, 2015 at 06:40 PM about the 1986 Ford F-150 XL Standard Cab 4WD LB
Question type: General
Tonight as I was flipping through lmc
truck looking for parts and trying to
stay with in a budget on the resto for
my 86 f150 after adding up all the
prices for all the body parts it is going
to cost well over 5 grand so my
question is does anyone have or
knows of a good donor truck it needs
to be 1980-1986 for at least the front
end rad sup,grille,ext it is very hard to
find parts up here in the north east so
if one from down south is cheap
enough I would be interested I would
like to get it before spring time and if i
can find a donor truck well that would
open up money in my budget for other
things as well

Yeah I've been on Craig's list and went and looked at a couple the problem is that I live in northern New York about 45 min from Canada and NYS uses salt on the roads up here in the winter time
So I just figured that I was a part of this online community that I would just take a shot in the dark and ask
There are lots of good trucks on the left coast but I don't think you want to drive 3000 miles.
Buddy I drive an 18 wheeler for a living I've seen every state except Alaska and Hawaii if it were cheap enough I would come and get it
Then check California, especially the rural areas. Out here it is old pickup heaven.
The next time I have a load that way I will deff look
