There's a G506 dumper about 4 hours from me that I'd be interested in picking up if I could get some answers.
I haven't been able to look at it in person yet, but have been told that some of the metal is rough with some rust and dents. It is missing the hood and side shields. It doesn't run, but that's okay since I would want to replace the straight 6 and tranny anyway. Tires hold air, but are maybe 20% up front and 50% in the rear.
So, questions - how much would you pay for a G506 in this shape? Tough without pics, I know, but sorry, I don't have any, and haven't seen any myself. How hard will it be to find the missing parts? I have read that there are some tough parts to find (gas tank, etc). I've also read that they are somewhat small (cab/legroom), and that's a big concern for me since I'm 6'7". Even though these guys are likely not tall, the truck looks fairly roomy. Any info in that regard?:

Thanks for any info...
