WTB: Bodypanels/Interior
I recently purchased a REPU for the hefty sum of $225. However as you may imagine it has some issues.
For the body panels I could get away with certain sections cut from other panels if necessary. I am looking for the following pieces:
BODY
LH front fender
LH floor panel
LH structural rocker panel
LH bed side panel
(4) rear tail lights
Front bumper
Interior
(1)Handle
LH/RH door panels
Thank you

Welcome to the Forum!
Where are you located? Some of those parts might take a while/some searching, dough, and good fortune to acquire... If, on the other hand, you might be willing and able to start collecting parts REPU's... that might be the way to go... (I have too many trucks!)
Floor pans might best be fabbed/patched from scratch.
I also have an entire spare early '74 bed that I would sell...
No straight front bumper to spare, sorry. Fenders are quite valuable.
So are complete, intact taillight units -- let alone the damn trim rings! Repro lenses are supposedly in the works, though...
Which handle is it you need?
Door panels -- also tend to be in short supply in clean, un-cut stock fashion...

Thanks for the reply!
I am located in Seattle, Washington.
I thought I may have to fab a lot of this stuff... I don't have a problem with that other than time. I am limited on my ability to house a parts truck. I have two racecars and two motorcycle projects in the garage. And remodeling the house so the driveway is holding the lumber drop...
I was vague about the handle... Interior door lever. The truck is a '76 I don't know if they changed at all over the years.
I have been able to find some Courier rust repair panels. I was told the two vehicle share a great deal of parts. Is there a list somewhere of what is interchangable?
Thanks a lot.

Good to know!
There's a bunch of guys in your vicinity... not sure how many still frequent this Forum, how often, but...
No 'list', RE: Courier, but--same year's front bumper center section believed to be identical. (And I could use one to three more straight and clean of those, too!) Repair panels will likely work, unless they are for the REPU-specific areas, such as fender flares, taillight surrounds, etc.
There were certain changes from '74 thru '76; the '77's the most different. Not door handles, though! I *may* have a spare for you -- but it'll be weeks, at least, before I get that sorted out. (I have a number of guy's requests for parts to get a handle on, *after* I get around to sorting through everything, *after* I do a bunch more work, etc., etc., etc. ...) ;)
Would a trip to Eugene, OR. to purchase my spare bed -- and perhaps a few other bits -- be workable? I really won't end up using that bed... and it's certainly restorable. Been keeping it dry at the far end of my carport... $100, o.b.o.
