Went to one of my dads friends junk yards yesterday to pick up an interior for my camaro. look what i found in the very back. the 3 door suburban is all original down to even having the owners manual in the glove box. hope you like

more pics. o and the yellow and white front fener on the GMC was almost perfect so it came home with me too.

That looks pretty cool, is that white one 4x4? That radio looked liked it was really clean as well.

Critter · 10-23-2008, 11:47 AM

Nice! I love junkyards! The fun is in finding the parts.

**68350** · 10-23-2008, 02:52 PM

Isn't that a CST horn cap on the burb? Nice finds, btw.

70rs/ss · 10-23-2008, 06:47 PM

I'd actually be interested in the burb if it isn't rotted away? If not PM me maybe a # to the yard? It might be worth a road trip?!

**FleetsidePaul** · 10-23-2008, 10:31 PM

That Burb's got some patina.

DirtyLarry · 10-23-2008, 10:42 PM

I could use that steering column out of the burb.

Great finds.... is the yard in Mtn Grove? Might have to meet up with you guys when you head out again. hint... hint....

crites_72 · 10-27-2008, 07:32 PM

My brother wants the burb but its hurt bad. been hit in the 3rd door and left quarter. and rust hasnt been friendly to it. will need at least both quarter panels, the 3rd door reskinned, and patch panels in the fenders. i couldnt believe the dash pad was perfect, the radio was there, the heater control was perfect, no air, but the motor does turn freely and appears to be a 2 speed trans.

Man these type of pictures are getting me motivated to go check out a classic car junk yard about and hour and a half from me. Its suppose to be a big one.

tcb-1 · 10-27-2008, 10:04 PM

DJ
first off, thanks for the pics!!! is that the yard about 2 miles east of Cabool on the south side of 60?

I drive past it on my way to Poplar Bluff and I'd love to stop in there sometime. I don't need anything, I just love to look.

Nate, roadtrip?

72BlckButy · 10-28-2008, 07:40 AM

I'm with you Doug.... I would love to get a little closer look at some of the trucks, and especially that Burb.

Just tell me when!

72BLKCHEYENNE · 10-28-2008, 11:42 AM

Would you be interested in selling that 68 horn cap, my truck is a 50th and the original wheel was gone and I have been looking for one of those caps for a while now..........let me know..........thanks

by the way that's an incredible find those cabs look very solid
