Default Need Help! PLEASE...

My Big brother is a fire fighter, father of two with an awesome wife, he is a very lucky man in many aspects.

A week ago today he was in a freak accident in his 1965 Ford Truck, an accident which has left his truck (the other love of his life in shambles) although he was life flighted from the accident he is doing well. Through the fractures in his face and a broken wired shut jaw he still looks at pictures of his truck and dreams of fixin it back up.

So, Baby Sister needs help, I need to know best places for parts, shops in Central Texas that wont screw me, and where to begin to give my brother back his truck... Thanks Yall

I would suggest to give cash or gift certificates and let him fix it in his own time/way when he has recovered. Finding parts for a truck that old becomes a nationwide search. Some parts may even need to be custom made. Do you have pictures?
