Here ya go picture junkies! First truck is a 69 custom 1/2 ton. Was a 396 big block with a 3 speed column shift. And yes the frame is rusted in half. Not much left, but got a few parts from it. And a 67 one ton in the pile. Not much left of any of these. Enjoy...

I do hate to see it, but another 20 years from now it will make our trucks all the more valuable.

Anything left on the 62 Belair next to the 67? Dig in there and have a look Eric! Sharpie

I don't think i will be digging in that pile dennis! I like junkin', but like living also... I have seen tipped over stacks out here before. In fact the one ton "eagle" i parted awhile back was sideways on the ground from tipping over.
Wish i could save all the older ones.

Willys47 · 10-26-2010, 09:46 AM

that Blue truck has big block motor mount stands in it they would be a good to grab.They may just help some ones project and your pocket book a bit.

flashed · 10-26-2010, 09:55 AM

I wish we had some yards like that here .When scrap metal went through the roof all our yards cleaned out everything . Nothing old left to dig in.

Cisco714 · 10-26-2010, 02:36 PM

You are one lucky guy, we dont have any yards like that in So. Ca.

**too much stuff** · 10-30-2010, 11:01 PM

I grabbed the mounts along with a few other parts.

The yards up here are getting tougher all the time to find anything. Just cross your fingers and hope you hit it right!

tcb-1 · 10-31-2010, 01:45 AM

where do you find these places Eric??!! makes me want to move to your neck of the woods!

**BIG ORANGE** · 10-31-2010, 10:05 AM

SAD,SAD, just SAD! Even on Halloween!!!

LilD · 10-31-2010, 10:27 AM

Our local yard just put a 55 chevy, 34 IH and 2 60s Mustangs in their front row. Im hoping they did that so people see them and get parts before theyre melted and sent to China.
