I went to the junkyard today for no paticular reason but just to see what was lurking around. I wound up finding a 72 C20 that had been wrapped around a pole and man what a shame this thing was in great shape no rust at all and I got these great parts! Bench seat that had recently been recovered nice working door handle (mine broke last year
) and shifter indicator! The grand total was 38 bucks for all. YES!!!
Once I got the parts home it was time to go to work. I pulled my rig into the garage and started wrenching. Heres a few pics. Before
and after
I usually hate sundays aside from football but It felt good to do something productive for once and my bears won today too so that helped alot haha.
Another truck caught my eye after I pulled the bench seat out of the 72. I found a 69 C20 that looked in too good of shape to be at a junkyard. I got closer and noticed the rockers were completely gone and the floorboards were rusted through. I checked the spif and it was an original 396 truck on another note I noticed these awsome door panels that have a bowtie at the top and the middle.
I have never seen these before and tried to get them out but the covering shredding on the bottom of the driverside when I got the bolt out so I said screw it. Anybody seen or know about these panels?
Keepin' it epic, Evan
