Salvage Yard Pictures- Part 1 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I took these pictures two or three weeks ago at a salvage yard two miles from me. I didn't post them because the owner of the yard didn't want to sell anything at that time. He and I get along pretty good and I got a call from him early this morning, so I decided to go ahead and post them. Tomorrow night you get "The Rest Of The Story" in Salvage Yard Pictures- Part 2

So is he selling the stuff now? I may have to head to Iowa and visit you

Did he have any shortbeds, or short frames?

Pl4yboy · 03-15-2007, 09:54 PM

What white 1ton would look pretty sweet if it was restored with a dump bed.

Pyrotechnic · 03-15-2007, 10:00 PM

My god that is a GM truck lovers dream. Hopefully you can help him get some of that stuff sold to people who can put it to good use.

FRENCHBLUE72 · 03-15-2007, 10:13 PM

Looks like there are some nice scores to be had there..

1969k10stepside · 03-15-2007, 10:14 PM

and I see atleast one frame for a 67-72 4x4

Texasdeere · 03-15-2007, 10:44 PM

I would love to have that green cab in the first set of pictures!

Cochise · 03-15-2007, 10:55 PM

Not to sound like an idiot, but is that a 409? Or is it a 348? Or am I just a MO-ron?

I need a Posi rear-end.

Is your guy near Gowrie, IA?

1969k10stepside · 03-15-2007, 10:56 PM

Its the Big Block GMC 305 V6 I believe..

bigo181979 · 03-15-2007, 10:57 PM

I want the front fenders off the blue or gray 67 trucks and a good streight drivers door.

Put me in line for that one if it is for sale. Seriously, if the price is fair & it is as solid as it looks- I'll be on my way. Maybe the orange hood in your last set of pics too.

jrb71c20 · 03-15-2007, 11:35 PM

I may have to send my dad across the river to visit and pick up some of that...gee wiz

sjarrett71 · 03-16-2007, 07:20 AM

I would buy that green cab in the first couple of pics for....one hundred million dollars!

Sonny · 03-16-2007, 07:44 AM

That is an awesome find. I like the big blue truck (C-50?)! Too bad it is too far for me to drive. That green cab in the first pictures looks pristine. I see a bidding war developing for that jewel!

jkaylor68gmc · 03-16-2007, 08:28 AM

Is that a 348 or a 409??? Ahhh!

**special-K** · 03-16-2007, 08:34 AM

Was that late-`50s LCF (big red graim truck) junked?

305 or 351 V6.

Man, did you...... die? cause that sure looks pearly to me!

Gotta say, that salvage yard looks a LOT better than mine for 67-72 stuff.
edit: I'm talking about the salvage yard I work at, not my driveway
