Worth asking for?

[PrinsGMC]

I seen these sitting out in a field a few miles from my house, what do ya think

[krue]

If you don't ask, you'll never know.

[70rs/ss]

Ditto! Why not ask, do really not want to know if they are free, or very little money? For all you know they might just want them gone!! That's what does it for me, the thrill of the hunt, I do not get all worked up, cause they might not be for sale, but you never know till you ask!! BTW that 4X4 stepper is looking good, let us know how it goes!!

[PrinsGMC]

The problem is i have no way of finding the owner of the land, a friend of my dad owns a pipeline company and he said he might be able to find him.

[zacut]

Finding the owner of the land is easy. Call the county recorders office with the address and they will tell you. Or, if you don't know the address get one that is close, go down to the office and you can view the maps to get the correct one. All of this is public information, all you have to do is ask. Good Luck

That '68 SHORTBED 4x4 is NOT a dime a dozen truck. If it's original, pick that baby up!

I want all of em!

[Yukon Jack]

Get to asking!

[PanelDeland]

The worst thing that can happen is that they say "NO!"

[boraxman]

You know the owner is gong to restore them "someday"

[bozracer]

I've gone as far as using online county gis land records to get the name and then looking up the phone # on yellowbook.com

[Aarons72s]

Ask! I got my 71 parts truck that way and a job to from the same person! Like they say the worst is they say no.

[70gmcjimmy]

Man, that is some cool stuff sittin there, and all seem very workable weather it would be restoration or just a worn lookin DD! Lot of neat stuff in the backgrounds too. Ask and let us know, man!

Yep, we have heard that word before. Maybe you will ask on the day the wife is nagging at the owner to get rid of them.

[CHAPS7931]

if you cant find the owner just go in and take your pick, hook them up and take the, no im just playing, but it wont hurt to look or ask someone

[Canadian694x4]

Lots of solid looking trucks there...keep us posted...

[jerry moss]

i've bought a lot of trucks by knocking on doors---hell, the previous owner of my 72 cheyenne super was stopped at ace hardware when i saw the truck, i waited for him to come out, asked if he wanted to sell it, two days and $1200.00 later it was mine. GO ASK.

[Ron 586]

I think someone has a good start on a killer treasure chest. I see enough good stuff there to make it worth the effort to find the owner even if the answer is no. It could turn into a maybe or yes before long if there was some interest shown. Go for it.

[corn]

I see stuff like that all the time, then I wake up. Those are sweet & look to be in decent shape too...

[special-K]

Buy the land.

[projectking]

Great stash!!

[sdkid]

Start low , you can always go higher. If they don't like the offer they will tell you what they do like.

[Snowbound]

I work in the oil patch and come across stuff all the time sitting out in fields. Get a county map and it will list the owners name. Look the name up in the phone book and call them up.

If that doesn't work out, try asking a neighbor if they know who the landowner is. If there is any oil/gas wells on the land, you may be able to find out through the oil company as part of their Emergency Response Plan.

If you do talk to the owner, just tell them you saw the trucks FROM THE ROAD!! People get real pissy if they find out you were trespassing!

And I'm interested in getting in on one of those trucks if you can make a package deal! Let me know how you make out.
