holy shit I just realized your in indiana, im in louisville ky.

Honestly man your best bet is to find another truck and cut the pieces out on it, they dont make much replacement parts for our pre 84 mazdas.

Although I did find a site that makes our: fenders, hood, grille, bumper.

Get yourself a MIG or a TIG welder, cut the rust out, and weld new metal in ???

Good luck man!

exactly, make sure to take the box off and take a good look first to see just whats left, then media blast and use acid etch primer/sealer to protect it from then on, unless yer better off replacing it,

you may find doorskins, cab corners are common , but not on mazdas, get a shaping hammer and build yer own parts for that.

Take a good look at the frame, with that kind of rot I would be cautious.

A little wire feed Mig should'nt cost too much I spent 400.00CDN on a lincoln flux core, good for sheet. I need a bigger welder for suspension fabrication now though. Buy a big welder 240v Gas assist if ya can. Check the classifieds.

Oh if you have compessor get a cut off tool, to cut yer panels , sawzalls have a way of making a mess on large body panels unless ya have a lot of experience with them, the finer the tooth and faster the speed the better. cheaper than buying a compesser
