I talked to the guys yesterday and he's holding out for an AD. He had one once. Thanks for the advice.
I did come up with this option too. I have extra door, seat frame, hood, fenders, grill, and a few extra parts. If I could find a cab only I might be in luck. He could put the whole set up on an s-10 or other frame and be good to go. Plus I'd be cleaning out some extra parts I don't need. Win win. I also know where I can get a 54 panel truck real cheap too. It's rough though.
