Deacon,
If you have the means, I highly recommend saving this vehicle from the
scrap heap! From what little I've picked up on this list, panel trucks
are somewhat rare...that's why I jumped at the opportunity to buy a 54
panel from Mark on the list here (that I'm still paying off).
If nothing else, I may be in the market for AD panel parts by the end
of this summer, so I might want to buy some of them off of you...where
is the truck (and where are you) located?
