Half-Off Day at Pick-Your-Part,got the goods - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I just went there for a visor and the place was a beehive of activity.Turns out to be 1/2 off day.Found my perfect visor and a rams horn to replace a cracked one. $27 both out the door.

While I was leaving they brought in a REAL NICE GMC1500 1969:

Another '69 had the original radio:

Wish I wasn't in a hurry,I would have gotten a fender,and the radio.

**WorkinLonghorn** · 03-16-2007, 03:50 PM

Ok,I cancelled my appointment,should I go back and get that radio? Anybody need one?

**WorkinLonghorn** · 03-16-2007, 04:24 PM

I'm sorely tempted to go back for the grill ,fender etc from that last one ,lots of brand new parts on there.The vultures where circling though.

If your thinking about it this much, You SHOULD go back & get more stuff, & look around, don't be in a hurry, & it's Half off day! (Don't forget a cooler with some beer)

Hey, Workinlonghorn, which pick a part are you finding all this good stuff at?

Pyrotechnic · 03-16-2007, 04:46 PM

Damn, I wish I had junkyards like that around here. Last time I went junkyard hopping was 4-5 years ago and the 73-87 stuff was wearing real thin and the 67-72 stuff was almost non existant.

That one is in Sun Valley on Tuxford near where the 5 goes over SanFernando Rd. Half price all weekend too.

Went back 3 hours later and the real nice '72 was stripped,almost as good a job as parking in East L.A. overnight; 250 engine/350 trans gone,my right fender gone,most everything else stripped off by these human piranas.Aftermarket grill was nice but cheap and already showing some rust.
>> Didn't want to come home empty handed so I paid $5.85 for this radio. Is it original?
