SC Vacation Junkyard Crawl

[tristan]

Instead of idly lying on a boring beach I decided to visit a local Pick 'n Pull that had been advertising a 72 C-10. I showed up there last Saturday with tools in hand only to be told that the truck "wasn't available yet." Calls the next 5 days repeated that message. It finally showed on their website this AM so back I went. The truck still wasn't where it was supposed to be in the yard but a kind employee found it for me.

Although not previously stripped, this poor vehicle is used up. Anything interesting is rusty, bent, smashed or missing. The SPID is in it and shows an interesting example of a workingman's options list; no auto, air or radio but anything that was upgradeable to heavy duty was in there: HD springs, alternator, battery, etc. Nothing there for me but it was still great to see one in a junkyard as that is getting rare anywhere on the east coast.
