Have a local meet coming up next week, really looking forward to it. Meets have been on short supply around here for the last 18 months or so.
Good luck at your local meet.

I have seen a few pics from your place, you could have your own swap meet...

If only they were 69-72

As far as the woodgrain panels- back in 2004 I was at a junkyard and they had a '72 GMC Sierra Custom K1500 Suburban- it had all the woodgrain panels in it (white with woodgrain inserts), basically it was pretty loaded expect A/C. I think the carcass is still there but has been stripped since. I should try to dig up any pictures if I still have them.
I passed on a lot of parts myself just because i didn't want to haul them or have a use for them at the moment.
