[tavenner13]

same song different dance. here it is again check me out!


went to my favorite local junkyard today and walked the entire lot looking for 67-72's and found some pretty unique stuff! enjoy the pics anybody need me to go back and nab anything for them?? id be happy to. sorry im not the best photographer

first truck i saw when i walked in... 67-68 C30 wrecker anyone??
its still got the 4 spd setup in the truck



another work truck... C20 flatbed... what year? '69?




NO MEANS NO!


dig the smoke stacks!!! yeehaw! saw the buckets but they dont look factory lol. still had original radio in it... worth anything??

[tavenner13]

(cont...)

another fun one! 67-68 long step... i love this style! still had 4-spd setup intact as well



not much left of this one... poor thing. A/C cab tho!



anything i should snatch up??? LET ME HOOK YOU UP!!

[Draggn66]

I could really use some power steering pump mounting brackets for my 71 smallblock if there are any left!

[tavenner13]

TTT, im gonna try and get ahold of as many of the trucks as i can. id like to nab the flatbed and one of the 4 spd trucks. im gonna see if he'll throw in the A/C truck if i buy the other two. ill let you guys pick them over updates coming soon!!

[72CSTC5]

Nice 67-68 hoods and grilles from the looks. The green and white cab would be a good donor for the roof for someone.

Thanks, let me know when you get it. J.

If you find any of these, let me know:
1) the offset air cleaner that goes on the straight 6 (to go around the vacuum booster)
2) Either the metal or blue auto column indicator with L1, L2... and the needle
3) 6 cylinder power steering pump brackets
4) linkage to a 400 tranny

I'd be interested in the rear slider on the smoke stack truck if original and not too much to ask for you to pull it and not too much to ship. How's that for conditions Seriously, all I really need is the inside center plastic clasp that holds the window closed. Mine is broke and is held on by a few screws. Thanks for your time.

[IvelDesigns]

if the front fenders are good on the green step side in post #2, i'd be interested in those.

[tavenner13]

found another jewel today in the same yard...

looks like a '69 with an underdash A/C unit (working) and complete interior. grille looked ok only one dent which could be fixed?? bed is toast and so are rockers, but rest is pretty good INMO. anyways here you go





as always lemme know if you need anything checked out further

found a GMC grille & bezels in excellent condition, havent shopped around for pricing yet but yes it will be for sale. im about to go start cleaning it up. more pics to come.

[killer71]

the I6 truck had the air cleaner but it didnt have a booster stock so do you still want the air cleaner assy? its there if so. no 6 cyl PS pump brackets today, but i was in a hurry. same with tranny linkage ill keep you posted

i wouldnt call it my stash at all! im picking these trucks over for you guys to call dibs on what you need then i fetch the parts not everyone is as fortunate as we are in the dry states, especially the guys up north.

Here's my wish list... I'll have to see how long it takes to get to Tyler--haven't been out that way in over 20 years. As I recall, the city itself is pretty nice.

SM465 shifter and knob
shift boot and ring (the boot is just to look at)
Transfer case shifter, shifter boot and ring
Radio, hopefully with knobs (to fill the hole in my dash and use an article I read recently)
Black steering wheel from a 69-72 (2 spoke, looks like swept wings, sort of)
I'm sure there's more, but my mind, as usual, is a blank.

The scrapyard trucks in this area are pretty well picked clean--just bones usually.
