Roadtrip! 7 states. 8 days.
Left mn and headed to the Decatur swap meet. Kind of went the round about way stopping here and there and checking out other collections. Met up with rockc at the meet and stopped by Jens jimmy on the way home to finish filling the trailer. A little over 3100 miles. A few pics of the "finds"......
93 last Thursday in tx... too hot!

Re: Roadtrip! 7 states. 8 days.
But ya couldn't have asked for a better day than Saturday! Shouldda stopped at my house in Marlow, OK and I could've saved you the trip to Decatur (125 miles south of me). Wouldn't have had to do all that walking on a hot day to find stuff. Next time you come down, my neighbor and I can fill 10 trailers!!!
20 (+) years ago at Decatur and other swap meets down here, doors were $25, beds $50, tailgates $30-40...trim pieces, grills, bumpers galore....on and on and on, just mountains of parts. Today, you don't see very much of it. I saw the generic side/door mirrors for $40/pair, hardly any sheet metal, so if you do see something, usually pretty expensive.

Really nice finds on your road trip Eric! If you ever want to sell that tub please let me know. I know you will probably use it on one of your restorations. Thanks for sharing the pictures.

Looks like more fun was had. You are going to have to build more buildings for storage

I just put up a 30x48 last summer. Not near big enough! I think that cab is a 72 if you are still looking...

Re: Roadtrip! 7 states. 8 days.
Thanks for the offer. I actually drug home a whole pickup from Phoenix a couple weeks ago. Then after seeing your other threads got motivated to hit up a local yard and found some treasures also. I have to be careful it is addictive. I see why you do what you do.

Re: Roadtrip! 7 states. 8 days.
Well, if over the course of the next few months you get serious about coming down to OK and picking up a lot of nice sheet metal parts, let me know, because I have a lot of it. Have a neighbor buddy that has a bunch, too.

Re: Roadtrip! 7 states. 8 days.
WOW. Nice stuff you hauled in. I see at least (2) set of front hooks, a speed warning dash, buddy bucket frame, lots of NOS and lots of etc..
