Went junkyarding... - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

RockTonka · 10-27-2010, 08:05 PM

I was looking for some interior dash pieces for our 58 that I know are out here somewhere, but couldn't find them this afternoon. This particular yard is good about not crushing any of the older stuff, but they WILL move them around on you!

Anyway, took a few pics...

Eastern, between 44th and Grand.

Damn! I wish we had yards like that up here... I MIGHT have a chance at finding that one stainless passenger outside door trim I've been looking for!

Would be great to just cruise around the old sheetmetal in there!

Ted.

Man, I could get in some serious trouble there....I want that, and that, and that one too...

Hahaha we don't see yards like that up here either, the cancer is usually so bad you couldn't find a single part worth grabbbing

wigadore · 10-27-2010, 10:50 PM

God bless the USA when it comes to old trucks. Here in Canada they are few and far between and when you find them they want a mint for a rust bucket!

Spackle100 · 10-28-2010, 01:00 AM

Man, I want a 34 or 35 GMC so bad...

bjcaldwe · 10-28-2010, 11:27 AM

Seriously, I never knew that was here. I do not need many parts, but I should would like to look at all that old stuff.

I got a 37 GMC a few weeks ago. It dosn't look like much but it will work for me. The grill and hood look new. The truck had been in a barn since the late 60's until this summer. I need to get it back in the dry. I hope to get started on it when I finish the 52.

I love Careys. I wanna go back!

samdjr74 · 10-29-2010, 04:37 PM

All the bone yards here in NJ are horrible. You'll never find anything older then the 70's and if you do, your not going to find anything slavagable.

scotts62 · 10-31-2010, 03:42 PM

I was looking through the pics and was thinking, man that looks like Careys salvage

kulturekat · 10-31-2010, 04:09 PM

do you know if their prices are reasonable? i saw a bunch of stuff i need.

scotts62 · 10-31-2010, 04:13 PM

Yeah they are good on prices for what ive gotten anyways..

jmedero · 10-31-2010, 04:45 PM

I spy a couple of nice patina'd logo doors!!!

Yeah, I saw that on your thread. I think it is a good start. Don't forget to do a build thread when you get on it.

Sillyoldman · 11-04-2010, 04:46 PM

Hmm I see a tail light lense in pic #1 that I might be able to use. Cool yard.

52chevy · 11-17-2010, 04:15 PM
