My new Longhorn - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

BigBlockBurris · 11-23-2003, 09:11 PM

I don't know what it is but here lately It has been a buyers market in my area. I've been able to buy several trucks at very good prices. Saturday I picked up a 69 Custom Camper 20 Longhorn. Factory PS,PB, 350, three on the tree. Very nice truck. Needs a front bumper and a few cosmetics but over all very solid.
Oh yeah, I had already unloaded it in my "junkyard" when I remembered to take the picture. I'll get a better picture in a day or so. I'll include a picture of the yard. Anyone need parts?

jorgensensc · 11-23-2003, 11:22 PM

Damn homeowners association won't let me put trucks in the yard!

Darn!!! Nice collection though!! Do any of your parts trucks have a complete A.C. system? If so how much?? I'm trying to decide whether to o factory style or aftermarket.

My friend owns 100 acres in a small rural area. he too is a chevy truck nut and a very understanding friend. I don't know what I would do if I could put my junk at his place!

man that71 chev sure looks like it was in a good wreck! frame is pretty bent too isnt it?
brings back memories of the damage to Andy's longhorn *cringe

BigBlockBurris · 11-24-2003, 11:46 PM

Yeah, it is hit pretty hard. The sheet metal doesn't really show it but the frame is bent bad just in front of the crossmember. Good cab, bed, tailgate and 5 lug conversion!

MAN, alot of nice trucks there...i'd love to have a parts pardise like that! Saweet Longhorn too eh...

**FRENCHBLUE72** · 11-25-2003, 02:02 AM

Nice looking truck and part's yard!!!!! I have only ever seen one long horn and it was in a junk yard...

Hooter · 11-25-2003, 04:34 AM

we don't even have that many nice trucks in this area! let alone junk ones, they are almost all gone around here, next to impossible to find parts locally, a shame actually, a bunch of Americans came up here 5 years ago with trailers and went around buying everything old from peoples backyards, leaving us local guys with nothing, but i guess if you wanna get anywhere in this world you gotta be an entreprenuer
