I just bought a 75 D100 and other than people with personal used parts for sale, I can't find any vendors who cover the old D100s at all. I would love to find someone with a parts list with prices so I can budget my priorities in getting this pickup to the level that I want it. Is there no venders out there who sell the parts to fix up one of these old trucks?

I'm only looking to make a driver out of it. Just to haul leaves and garbage and makes trips to Lowes and Menards. No shows, maybe some cruise nights.

I got this licensed today at the DMV and they wanted to know if it was a sweptline or a utiline. I'm not familiar with either one of these terms. Google lead me to believe (with no time to research) that I had the utiline, was I right or wrong?

Sweptline=wide bed with fenders on the inside. Utiline=narrow bed with fenders on the outside.
These terms are not specific to 61-71 trucks, they go way beyond that.

When your choices are sweptline or utiline, then it refers to the bed type.

I'm undecided as of yet. I love the body style and I hate the way it runs, drives, and rides. I'm considering replacing everything but the body, but my skill level, budget, space, and remaining life span, all require me to put lots of thought into making the right decision. It's a nice solid truck with a couple of small rust holes and it needs the floor pans replaced. No matter which direction I go, it will need some interior pieces such as sun visors (complete), rearview mirror, glove box door, (better than it has), Dash pannel (better than I have), and windshield just to name a few. RF fender has light damage also.

I find lots of stuff on ebay but unfortunately usually overpriced www.Vansauto.com has parts too but probably not what you need and more of a restoration persons needs.
Facts are stubborn things.

I used to use E-bay a lot but now I mostly use them more for visual aids and comparing parts when there are options. When E-bay doesn't have what you're after, it's a good sign that it's going to be at least somewhat hard to find.
