Thanks to all for the encouragement and support.

Wouldn't you know it, I've already found another. The paint is rougher, but the body is straighter. It's about a mile up the road from my Dad's house. The guy selling it put it up on Saturday. Pop went to school with the guy's wife. Same year, '65 - auto, 6cyl, Short Style-side bed. No rust. ONE OWNER. Painted bumpers w/o a "scratch" - just patina'd like we like 'em. . .

I can just swap the plates if I feel lazy. . . :wink:

Things are looking up fast!

Congrats on the good luck, Some times there is a silver lining. Now you have a ride to chase parts to fix your other truck.

Thats kind of a rare one with a 6 cyl. auto trans. combo. Its probably a Custom Cab. That will be a neat one to fix up, post some pics when you can.

Really? What might be more rare is the fact that it isn't a custom cab at all, but it does have the original philco (right?) AM radio . . .

Auto tranny in any Slick is pretty rare. I have been a fan/owner of these trucks for 13 years and seen well over a hundred of them up close and in person.
I have only seen 1 factory automatic truck.

65-66 is more likely to have an auto trans, but 61-64 are really rare with AT.

radios have nothing to do with the truck being cc or not.
