Looking for information on any 2R truck body parts

[Guido]

Ezra,

I guess I would let the box go for that. However, it will be this weekend before I can get any pictures of the cab as my "treasures" are stored on a piece of property I own 30 miles from my house. How would we work out shipping?

I'm not in any particular hurry. I can't even really work on the truck until the middle of July.

Yes, shipping will be the real issue. Didn't you mention something about bringing them to Kansas?

I may be able to get them on a backhaul to Vern Ediger's in Kansas and will call him later so he can check on that.

Gary, "pickup" is sorta anonymous. How about 4E series (4E5, 4E7 ???) or even C-cab???

Bob/MrBiggs - You are correct. I never thought about it that way. I have a 4E7. Most manufacturers called them pick ups, but Studebaker (at least in some years) called them pickups. Dropping the Transtar name in 1959 is sorta like the humor that caused Studebaker to call Champ cabs T cabs.

I think I can get them to Kansas and then probably pretty close to you. Let me know if I should pursue this.
