Junkyard trip
I went to the junkyard to see if I can get some wheels. I didn't find what I was looking for but I did saw plenty of 8 lug wheels. Maybe next time. I saw a couple earlly 70 rear wheel drive Cadillacs with drivetrain untoched. They are having 50% sale on the 1st. I migth go back again. I saw one c20 truck. Driver rocker was rusted out, but corners were solid. I think they junked it due to rust issues. Front grill and radiator support were gone. I always thougt that fenders need to come off first. Ohh well learn something new today. I also saw an old international truck. No rust, very straight.
On the way home brakes felt soft on my 4runner. Right rear axle bearing went bad and brakes were covered in gear oil. I got it fixed already. I hope you guys like the pics. |

Re: Junkyard trip
cool looking international!
not much left of that c20, i always like reading the SPID (if its still there) just to see what it was, way back when.

Re: Junkyard trip
Looks like the old Pick-U-Part I used to go to out in the Valley in San Fernando.

Re: Junkyard trip
Ok, I went back today and bought some parts. 3 wheels for $17. Low profile fan for $15. Maybe next weekend I will find the missing wheel and center caps. They had a 50% off and this place was packed.
