Ok kids, roadtrip time
Made my yearly trek sown south again recently with stops in KS, MO, OK and Texas. Left in a nice MN blizzard as usual. Wouldn't have it any other way i guess.
Stayed in northern MO the first night where i met up with a truck guy in lenexa the next morning and also picked up my radio and 2 speakers i had refurbished not far from the first guy. Hit up a new junkyard in southern MO later that day and got a few parts there. Next morning was thunder and heavy rain so i killed time before hitting another yard in KS. grabbed a few small parts there also. Finally off to OK to hit up another couple of yards and find some more goodies. Finally off to the decatur swap meet. Weather was cool but WAY better turn out than last year. And yep, found a few parts there also. Last stop was down to dallas and meet up with Dave (35boulder on the board here) and check out his nice 69 shorty and wipe him out of all of his extra parts. Well worth the trip and super nice guy. Trailer is still empty at this point since the 67-72 pickings are getting tougher all the time so back to OK to pick up a couple of newer beds i found earlier. Can't go home with an empty trailer ya know. On with the pics, Enjoy.

Re: Ok kids, roadtrip time
Onward with the junkyard pics. I know there are a few non 67-72 pics, but still pic worthy. Forgot my camera in the truck at the first yard. Probably around 15 67-72s there.

Re: Ok kids, roadtrip time
Will be adding a bunch of square body pics to the abandoned thread on the 73 side in the next couple of days.
Time to turn around... Watch out for fog and keep the shiny side up! Onward...

Re: Ok kids, roadtrip time
Old yards like those with cool cars are pretty much non-existent in the north anymore, looks like a little drive south was well worth it! Cool pictures.

Re: Ok kids, roadtrip time
Some pretty decent parts, but the 67-72 stuff was a little tougher to find this year.
Quote:
Some hubcaps, a nice 72 door and a couple of fenders. It was just outside of carthage. The yard has been closed for years. I got his number and he met me there and walked me through it.
