just back from a Pick Your Part type yard

[dudevato]

went looking for plastic lenses for my '73 fleet side bedded GMC

The one in Redding Calif. had Nothing, that was a few days ago

This morning I drove to the one in Chico, they had 4 or 5 in various stages of 'picked over'

I ended up getting 2 front fender side lights and 3 of the ss trims for them
and 2 real nice tail lights/ss trims and gaskets for them

This all came to $29 which seems kind of expensive until I remember what LMC wants, and then there's the half pocket of light bulbs I always seem to leave with

I think of these trips like some like to go fishing, I get all coffee'd up and really enjoy the ride. 'love this hobby - keep on truckin'

I used to love to "go fishing" at the junkyards...all kinds of good stuff, ideas you can get, etc.
I Have a family now, and it will probably be years before i can make time to go to the junkyards again.

I love junk yards, they are like fishing. Lol. I remember going to them with my dad when i was a kid.

Here we have some huge junkyards but they move stuff fast so if you might want it get it today.Outside of town we have a few small country ones that have anything but you pay more and it might not be as nice as you wish tho.
