I've been watching the classifieds for two months as well as calling every salvage yard I can find and I'm having trouble finding a few things for the 1028. I'm looking for a driveshaft, tailgate and drivers side door. Does anybody know of any parts sources or have any of the above items near Northern VA. please let me know

thanks

None of your junkyards have doors or tailgates for 1/2 to 1 ton 1981-1987 chevy trucks? WOW. For new try Year One, I think door shells are $155 didn't look up tailgates.

I called 6-7 junkyards/salvage yards withing driving distance and every one of them told me they scrapped everything older than mid 90's when the prices were high.

If you have your bent driveshaft, just take it to a driveline shop and they can retube it for you inexpensively.

I will drop the driveshaft off at a local driveline shop and have them fix it. I know someone that had two other cucv driveshafts made for 175 a piece and that included two new u-joints.

I'll call french lake and see if they have a door, but i Imagine shipping would be pretty high
