I'm assuming all you're looking for is a big bunch of spare parts? You could
always check any local classifieds, or the online Auto Trader type sites.
I've seen lots of things come across there that say "fixer-upper special"
going for just a couple hundred bucks. They almost always have enough usable
parts to be worth it. Or try lurking on eBay. Just as an example, I spent
about 30 seconds looking and found http://tinyurl.com/83w5p, which has
transmission problems so it probably wouldn't work for you. Point is that
maybe it doesn't need to be a wrecked truck to be a suitable parts donor.
