Good women, they're few and far between
I'm fortunate enough to have met Jeff's wife and I can verify that she is a good woman and Jeff is a very lucky guy.
I too am very happy to hear she is okay!
Jeff you know I'll do what I can to help you with that truck.
Some of the parts you need should be available from LMC Truck. You might check their catalog.
Also there is a guy in Poulsbo who frequently advertises '67 to '72 parts on Craigslist. You might find some of the pieces you need there. If he isn't currently offering anything I might be able to find his email address somewhere.
And with just a little pushing I'd start parting out my '72.
And I think you meant nothing older than '73, rather than nothing newer...
