sad things you see in the junk yard

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard
 

Wasn't in a junk-yard, but was on the side of the road left for dead,... with a blown engine.

another fallen soldier...:flag:

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard
 

more!

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard
 

The only reason they make it to the junkyard here in PA is rust. Otherwise people just keep them on the road forever. My last truck was a 91 Subaurban, it ran and drove perfect with 250,000 miles. But every panel had huge rot holes and the body was coming off the frame. So I finally had to scrap it.

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard
 

These are all mine.

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard
 

One more, I got a few more junk ones but no pics.

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard
 

Same situation in MD. Many of the yards aren't keeping the older stuff like they used to...I know one of them doens't let the late model stuff set long before the pull the money making parts and crush the rest...I guess it's the nature of the business if it sits and isn't making money crush it and put a new one in it's spot, repeat as needed or space becomes limited.

Too bad it was welded to the other one.

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard
 

QUICK!!! somebody grab that cap!!!

Those are like gold to some square owners!!

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard
 

Are those rally wheel really that popular? There are a few sets of them in one of the junkyards here.

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard
 

Check out the prices on the caps alone.... aftermarket ones are pricey... and actual G.M. caps. are outragous

not counting the cost of the rims themselves.... so yeah, they can be popular to square owners,.. IMO even pre 73 trucks look good with em too

if you can get em for cheap.. grab em clean em up and sell em.. prolly make you a couple bucks

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard
 

no 75 or 76 was when they first started making the rallies

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard
 

How about the only thing good that came out of cash for clunkers! I found this in my buddies junkyard.

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard

this guy must work in the firey pits of hell.....:banghead::m6::m3::mad::m2::censored::cuss::dohh::hc:

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard
 

msgross, yours is the worst sight ever

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard
 

nope..i dont even think they were first available til later 70's if im correct?

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard
 

look..

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard
 

msgross. That's just wrong, how could you show us that? Can people still buy them?

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard
 

They look good on the older trucks but not available when those trucks were built. 67-70 trucks had 6 bolt pattern and they also look good with ralleys, except you need the ralleys from mid to late 70's up to 87 4x4 ralleys, look the same as the 5 lug but were 6 lug like the older trucks!

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard
 

god somebody just bring one of them short beds to me, I'll keep her and fix her up good and right. I'd love to have one just can't afford one around here. I'd take a long bed and then turn it into a short bed if it was free and saving one from the scrap heap.

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard
 

Here is my sad pic. It's an 85. Only 500 made that year. I tried to buy the cab and bed for 3 weeks, with no luck. It was like my money wasn't worth the little bit of help I needed from them? Anyway......the truck was crushed and is gone forever! Oh, I picked up another 85 about a year later in much better shape. Look for a build thread on it soon :) http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y23...603091231a.jpg http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y23...0603091230.jpg

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard
 

they look good on later model trucks as well, I put a set on a '95 , look'd really good on it.
the van rally's look good on trailors as well.

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard
 

72 had 5lug like this truck

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard
 

That's why he said 67-70. ;)

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard
 

Actually, I got real lucky with the rally's I came up on... The junk-yard here sold me 4 rims with the caps for $100.

'course they looked like they were dipped in silt, and dirt for 50 years. Don't have any pics.....

but what wonders a lil elbow grease,.. polish and spray-can paint will do..;)

It had 10" deep 'vette rally's on it when i got the truck from my dad.. but needed tires,.. and couldn't afford the new tires for those rims...

BTW.. yes they do look good on newer trucks as well.... Square Style never dies!!!

Re: sad things you see in the junk yard
 

Haha my bad. So what rims would of came on it? 72c10 307/th350
