Well, here's the pictures from the salvage yard I promised... I went back over and got the ignition locks and a few other parts yesterday.

It will take a couple of posts to get them all on...

rico7769 · 08-30-2012, 10:26 PM

i'm lucky to get one every few months around here and by the time I get to it...its stripped. Nice finds.

**lolife99** · 08-30-2012, 11:26 PM

Nice bunch of truck parts in these pics.

I have a yard about 35 miles South of me that has a lot more trucks than this one but the guy that owns it is a little hard to deal with. If I get down there I will take some pictures of it. I need to go down and see if I can find a carb for the '68 anyway...

Where's this yard at ?

There's a yard east of Albia that has some decent vehicles I'm told,, haven't dealt with them yet.

jeffg1010 · 08-30-2012, 11:43 PM

I love the one with the sunflowers growing up through the engine bay. Almost like flowers on a tombstone. haha

**WIDESIDE72** · 08-31-2012, 01:29 AM

How is the grill surround on the white/ blue bed truck? Is there a tach gauge cluster in the C50/60? That 67/ 68 wheel looks nice. I would grab it!

Newton, IA

I think that is the second one I was talking about. Just West of Eddyville.

Drivers side is dinged up. No Tach in the C-50 but I'm going back to get the hockey puck lights off of the roof...

Hey Leon,

tough to see them but I spy tow hooks on that big truck also that 71 has disc brake steelys on it

these trucks certainly dont last long around here in a yard usually picked over pretty good in a day or two

I have a huge yard(50-60 acres ten min from me thats been closed for the past 5 yrs. but recently the owner died.I'm sorry too say but I'm itching too get in there. I know theres about 15 trucks in there and alot of them I remember seeing driving around when I was a kid

I see those too

are they the same as C10/20? I know where some are, attached to a whole truck just like that one on a relatives farm. Better check the gauges next time...

[QUOTE=67c10rustbuket;5753848]I see those too

I have no Idea if they are the same. one of the local yards here has a bunch of school buses with hooks on the back that look similar I wrote down the part #'s found on this site for when I go back

.

yep you better check them guages most times either a vacuum guage or a air pressure guage is in them oh yhea and it should have the 80# oil guage

eastxbbqman · 12-12-2012, 09:32 AM

There is one here thats full of 60s and 70s trucks. He tells me that when junk cars go to 350 dollars each he is gonna haul them off.

71K20chevy · 12-12-2012, 09:45 AM

Well there are too many parts there. You should ship some to me

Here are a couple more pictures of the hooks. They are not the same as the smaller trucks.

These pic made me tear up, I could hang out with a tool bag all day at that place

PanelDeland · 12-12-2012, 01:14 PM

How come I never find any good junk?Looks like a nice place to spend the day.

I wish I had one like that near me. I like that bowtie on the hood of the C50.
