vwjunkie Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 Hey Guys,I'm looking at a B model and the guy has some NOS sheet metal that came from the dealer back in the day, including a fender, a entire roof section, and the lower section (below the rear window) for back of the cab for a standard non contour cab. I've never seen any of this stuff for sale, any idea what its worth? I'm trying to take into account what I might be able to get back out of the deal as the truck is in good enough shape for me not to need the stuff.ThanksJason Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/27833-nos-sheetmetal/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

vwjunkie Posted October 16, 2012 Author Share Posted October 16, 2012 Possibly, the guy is having some title issues so I'm waiting to see if he gets it sorted out. I have missed that 59 I had and came across a '63 in pretty decent shape.Jason Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/27833-nos-sheetmetal/#findComment-141878 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mowerman Posted October 16, 2012 Share Posted October 16, 2012 you could pay up to 700.00 just for the fender,,,id guess,at least $1.500 i know they would go fast if you were to advertise them...good luck bob Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/27833-nos-sheetmetal/#findComment-141921 Share on other sites More sharing options...
vwjunkie Posted October 16, 2012 Author Share Posted October 16, 2012 Thats more than I would have expected... I kind of figured the roof and rear cab panels would bring some decent money. I'm not trying to make a killing on the stuff but I don't want to give it away either... Making some money back on some of this stuff will help pay for the 10 tires it needs, along with plenty of other stuff as well.He also has an inline injection pump off a turbo 711, supposed to be good used but I would have no way test it. Are they worth anything?Thanks,Jason Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/27833-nos-sheetmetal/#findComment-141924 Share on other sites More sharing options...

vwjunkie Posted October 17, 2012 Author Share Posted October 17, 2012 Thanks.. I'm not really new, I was on the forum when I had my 59 under a different screen name... I couldn't remember my login info so I just registered with a new name.. As for tires I'm gonna swap to the 22.5s.mi put a pair of used wheels and tires on my 59 for only $100 off Craigslist. They were pulled off a school bus being scrapped. I'm gonna keep my eye out for that type of stuff.Hopefully the title issue gets resolved I would love to bring this thing home.Jason Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/27833-nos-sheetmetal/#findComment-142031 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamied625 Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 if you do do the deal i would be interseted in the roof panel for my current project that needs a roof.Jamie Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/27833-nos-sheetmetal/#findComment-142032 Share on other sites More sharing options...
