Welcome to the forum
if anything is missing and the truck runs and drives it was probably emissions stuff, there isn't much under the hood you can remove and still start the truck they only have what they need to function
post up a pic of your engine compartment and one of us can tell you what is missing. these things have a pretty barren engine compartment tho so it may all be there

you cant find any body parts or bumpers etc new anywhere anymore, but a lot of that stuff and other stock parts come up on the classifieds here

as for stock parts you can find a lot of the engine parts, misc bushings, headlights etc on rockauto.com and on ebay usually
there are also parts compatible from other isuzus from suspension components to full engines depending on what your planning to do with it
port up some pics when you get a chance, spend some time searching the forum tons of info here

Ditto... Emission stuff depends on where you live. Our trucks are a classic truck or a antique. Each one may have different requirements. Texas something that old and Inspected in they smaller cities they don't check much. They do not really have a way to see what emission stuff was there. I large cities, metro areas they do stick a tester in your exhaust. If it does not pass then you have a problem. I have had a big block chevy in a 85 GMC Headers no cats, no nothing. We live in rural Texas so if it stopped, the wipers worked, and the lights work The just slap a sticker. If you have a check engine light on, it ok by them. Not in the big city, My stock 75 truck has no emission stuff on it, nether does my V8 Luv.
