Looking for another truck - this time Longbed

[Jferrante]

Thinking of getting back into a 60-66 (this would be my third). I have had 2 64's a step side and a fleet side and the fleet side had airbags but wasn't notched. Thinking of going longbed notched frame so if it is already notched thats a plus. Patina is a must not big $$ paint jobs. Been browsing Craigslist but any leads appreciated. Budgeting a max of 10k for the truck right now.
Thanks for the leads.

Any distance last 2 trucks came from Georgia and Los Angeles thanks for the links. I am thinking LS swap if I find the right shell so would be looking to spend 5k or less on the shell

Not a long bed but relatively local - might go see it this weekend...is it a pig with a lot of lipstick? Good amount of rust on the cross braces for the bed in the pictures. Doesnt concern me terribly but your opinions matter.

Plan is to c-notch and then eventually LS.

Could that be why there are two sets of u-bolt saddles on the diff?
