Re: One Rear Wheel Parking Brake Mod?

I hate to break everyone's bubble, but the last time I was there, a couple of weeks ago, the GMC I pulled the parts from was the ONLY 67-72 truck still in the yard. Around 6 months ago, I was there and pulled the 3spd shift linkage rods off a 70 or 71 Chevy. It was a good thing I got them when i did, cause it was GONE the next time I went. (PROBABLY CRUSHED- It was pretty far gone from rust anyway). They deal with insurance companies and mostly new cars like most yards. They also buy cars out of people's yard, etc, so they do come across a FEW vintage trucks occassionally, but don't make a road trip expecting a treasure trove. It is a huge yard,and you could practically BUILD a complete 88-98 Chevy truck from parts there. (Seems like I almost did with the 93 K2500 I am working on). The last time I was there, I left a business card (I am an electrician) and asked the guys working there to call me anytime they got 55-59 and 67-72 Chevy or GMC trucks, but I am not drinkin' buddies or anything with them, so who knows.
