Yeah,there's nothing like searching around the auto wrecker and making that perfect find! It's like therapy...Even better if you have to pull it yourself too!

Well done,my friend! I LOVE trips to the boneyard. I like just wandering through,and seeing what things I can use..large or small.

Re: well i went to the junk yard today!!!

mine is a 350 grill im not realy sure how much there going for the owner of the junk yard said i could have the bed for 50 and i found the grill by accident and pulled it and put it in the back of my truck then i asked him if 120 would get the bed grill and pay him for his labor and he said that was fair so the grill was kinda unknown as far as a set price. but i do know the emblem dose unbolt and you can change out the badge with a 454 badge, or as im planning to do is unbolt the 350 badge and leave it off becouse six cylender trucks didnt have a badge.
