Hey, looks like that parts truck came with the factory auxiliary tank setup. You better not scrap that truck before removing all the tank hardware...those are definitely worth saving.

Great score for 200 and free. 8) Your free truck looks like it in good condition compared to what we've got out here.

I noticed in one pic of your parts truck it still has the 390 badge on the lower section of the right front fender.
Any chance the other one is still there on the left front fender? If so would you be willing to sell/trade them to me?

If you do scrap it I'd pull all reusable parts and prep them for storage and store them somewhere dry.

You'll most likely need them later.
