Chasing leads pays off. Well, maybe 1 out of 10 times. Good or bad, there is still the thrill of the chase. Left this morning, hit 4 different places, (3 were a wash) put on a couple hundred miles, layed out a bunch of greenbacks and brought this pile home.
Keep your hopes up, there are still some parts out there!

Looks like you had a pretty good day.

Jud is far enough away where our paths don't cross very often. We have told each other about vehicles in our areas however.

Randy, this was a private collection i got into. Everything is already pulled. He has more to go through and i said i would be back when i find some more money! He knows the value somewhat. Most of these parts haven't been unboxed for about 13 years.

Did you drive to LMC truck parts

54belair · 12-15-2012, 06:59 PM

I just completed a trip out west. One route on the way out and another on the way back.
I saw many (many) 67-72 pickups sitting in fields, yards, junk yards all across new mexico and thru central and northern Az.

For a guy with a trailer and some vacation time----might be very interesting!
