Gotta love garage sales! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**too much stuff** · 06-09-2013, 10:02 PM

Had to travel about 80 miles for this pile. I knew the guy had some parts around and he finally figured he would sell. The dashes are a little rough, but he priced them accordingly. These weren't in the garage sale, i had to get him to show me the stuff in a different room... Not a bad day!

flashed · 06-09-2013, 10:04 PM

WOW Score ,and I was happy to find a spare wheel for my 1 ton yesterday while yard saleing .

**72 Super** · 06-09-2013, 10:09 PM

Eric, man you run across some nice deals!

**70C10Toejam** · 06-09-2013, 10:30 PM

Score! Are all those tach clusters?

kcsa75 · 06-09-2013, 10:42 PM

Are you going to use the sport mirrors. If not, would you sell them?

Same old story, you have to put your time in and chase leads and hope they pay off sometimes.

Not selling stuff now...

Tillik · 06-09-2013, 11:28 PM

Very nice find. I'm trying to decide whether to upgrade my 67 dash to a 5 or 8k Tach or just add an external Tach for now. Also, my 67 has these 3 inch round mirrors and would rather have some of those sport mirrors. Doesn't get much better than that find! Congrats

68 TT · 06-10-2013, 01:15 AM

Great find and persistence to stay after the lead.

Tinkermc · 06-10-2013, 07:00 AM

nice work

**lolife99** · 06-10-2013, 07:36 AM

Excellent score!

Mr Chevorlet · 06-10-2013, 09:27 AM

Nice score,

**special-K** · 06-10-2013, 09:28 AM

When's your yard sale?

I always like the look of the stock tachs in these trucks.

Can't believe you would miss the funeral. I will show my wife a pic of you so you can get the "special" price...

Jud, haven't looked them over very close yet. I can't believe you found one up north here!

**special-K** · 06-11-2013, 11:05 PM

I guess I should want to be at the funeral to get first dibs ahead of these vultures. Some people...I swear.

Weird,I just looked in the mirror and saw a vulture...Oh,I get it now. Who,me?

72BlckButy · 06-13-2013, 02:07 PM

Definitely worth the drive...

rambler · 06-13-2013, 03:48 PM
