I just found a 2R5 1/2 ton pickup on e-bay. At first glance it looks real rough, tires blown, bumpers crafted out of pipe, no radiator and the entire right step well missing.
However, take a look at the bed on this thing. Despite the poor condition of the cab, the bed looks decent. Sure it has surface rust and is wavy, but the bed side, fenders and tailgate look worth saving.
It is in Atlanta, TX and the opening bid is $1.00 (though it has a reserve).
