Well, here's the pictures from the salvage yard I promised... I went back over and got the ignition locks and a few other parts yesterday.

It will take a couple of posts to get them all on...

I have a yard about 35 miles South of me that has a lot more trucks than this one but the guy that owns it is a little hard to deal with. If I get down there I will take some pictures of it. I need to go down and see if I can find a carb for the '68 anyway...

Where's this yard at ?

There's a yard east of Albia that has some decent vehicles I'm told,, haven't dealt with them yet.

I love the one with the sunflowers growing up through the engine bay. Almost like flowers on a tombstone. haha

How is the grill surround on the white/ blue bed truck? Is there a tach gauge cluster in the C50/60? That 67/ 68 wheel looks nice. I would grab it!

Newton, IA

I think that is the second one I was talking about. Just West of Eddyville.

Drivers side is dinged up. No Tach in the C-50 but I'm going back to get the hockey puck lights off of the roof...

Hey Leon,
Is that yard south of Newton open on Saturdays? I thought I'd go this weekend.

tough to see them but I spy tow hooks on that big truck also that 71 has disc brake steelys on it:metal:

these trucks certainly dont last long around here in a yard usually picked over pretty good in a day or two

I have a huge yard(50-60 acres ten min from me thats been closed for the past 5 yrs. but recently the owner died.I'm sorry too say but I'm itching too get in there. I know theres about 15 trucks in there and alot of them I remember seeing driving around when I was a kid

I see those too ;) are they the same as C10/20? I know where some are, attached to a whole truck just like that one on a relatives farm. Better check the gauges next time...:smoke:

I have no Idea if they are the same. one of the local yards here has a bunch of school buses with hooks on the back that look similar I wrote down the part #'s found on this site for when I go back;).

yep you better check them guages most times either a vacuum guage or a air pressure guage is in them oh yhea and it should have the 80# oil guage

There is one here thats full of 60s and 70s trucks. He tells me that when junk cars go to 350 dollars each he is gonna haul them off.

I wish I had one like that near me. I like that bowtie on the hood of the C50.
