WOW!

I'll have to head that way someday...after I get my car paid off

I've yet to find any decent yards in central Illinois, but I'm always on the lookout

did I hear someone say that 2.5 hours was far??? please! out here 2.5 hours is a nice drive to the parts store. (although it is "The Truck Shop" in orange) And that 2.5 in illinois is probably on open road... man would that go by nice and quick. Better than the 2.5 hours to go 60 miles. Go out there and get the d@mn stuff.

I bet you are even paying less than $2 a gallon for gas also... what a dream!

Jewels, did you check that wrecker for tow hooks? they bring a pretty penny nowdays.

I found a wrecker just like that 2 weeks ago in a local yard and in the option sheet noted that it had tow hooks, looked under the front bumper, but they were gone, and this was on a 2WD truck

That blue cheyenne seems like it has a tilt column, did you snatch it?

Jewel.s if we had a yard like that here in mass. I could charge admission. with our weather it,s rust in six months. I would own that green stepside bed in a heart beat if it was closer. need back fenders. how come your brother was in all the pictures and not you.
