Rick in S.A., what about these rumors of donor trucks in Houston? I live
in the Houston burbs and will be glad to check for you and Mark, and anyone
else for that matter. If you want to divulge where they might be I may be
able to drive by as soon as this Sunday. Give me a list of stuff your
looking for and I'll be glad to go on a treasure hunt.
Mark, would you happen to know where Marathon, Texas is? Beautiful out
there. North of Big Bend National Park. I met a guy out there this summer
that said he had a Willys truck cab he was parting out. Didnt see it
myself but I got his card.
Try ted@... or 915-386-4342. A tad closer to Austin than Colorado
but not much.
Wish I was in Austin right now.
P.S.
BTW, Did everyone catch that off-topic personal P.S. that the substitute
moderator snuck in one of his recent messages? Shame on him.

Greetings,
I have a 1952 Willys pickup that I bought from a rancher in TX about 7
years ago. I use it as a work vehicle for hauling brush, pulling stumps,
etc. I'm in the process of installing an original rear PTO unit. I plan
to use it for digging post-holes on a small piece of property I have West
of Austin, TX. I haven't fixed it up too nicely for fear I'll never use it
if I do. I am looking for a 26-tooth Overdrive unit that I can install on
my truck. I'm looking for a reasonably priced used unit. Also, I'm
looking
for the small running boards that fit between the rear fenders and doors.
If I could find someone who had a an original rust free cab I might
consider purchasing it so that I could replace the one I have without
suffering from a large amount of downtime. Does anybody know where I
might
be able to track some of these "goodies" down? Thanks for your help.

Hi Mark, It's good to find someone a little closer to San Antonio. I
haven't
found any donor trucks down here but if I do I'll let you know. I've heard
there is a place in Houston that has some, but I haven't been down there
yet
to check them out. I understand where you're coming from about restoring
your
truck. I used my truck all last week to haul cars and trucks out of the mud
down here and loaded it full at least 100 times with all kinds of junk. I
never thought about what might get scratched or dented. Looking back I
might
have hesitated to take it into some of the places I went. But as it is,
"There's no place my Willys can't go". :-)
