Re: Visited 2 Salvage Yards Today
The truck circled in Red is fairly decent and probably wouldn't take a lot to make a driver. I already took the tailgate, rear bumper and mirror arm from it. I think it was a 383 auto. The grille and front bumper are bent but there are better ones on some of the other trucks. The seat looks half eaten.MOPAR70 wrote:So are they all fairly rough or could some be made drivers?

Soop, would you be willing to tell me the name of that yard, so I can contact them about that '91/'93 bed? Thanks Doug

Re: Visited 2 Salvage Yards Today
Yes. They probably all are. I already have an inquiry about the passenger side arm but I still have to examine it better and get back to them. Send me a PM if you are interested in one of them.jrstockracer wrote:any chance that one of those mirror arms may be for sale?
Re: Visited 2 Salvage Yards Today
I think I just wee'd a little. Is this Doug's 4-Wheelers? I'm from Des Moines. I'll have to make a trip down there when I get back from the sandbox. As if seeing my family wasn't enough motivation to get home...

I didn't realize there is a member from Norwalk. Yes, it is Doug's.Myascape wrote:I think I just wee'd a little. Is this Doug's 4-Wheelers? I'm from Des Moines. I'll have to make a trip down there when I get back from the sandbox. As if seeing my family wasn't enough motivation to get home...
Re: Visited 2 Salvage Yards Today
Yup, I'm from Norwalk. My truck is in storage in Knoxville while I'm gone, but I'll be back to it soon enough. Was it you that I talked to about the title? I'm trying to figure out who used to own my truck. I made a separate thread in topic.

I replied to your thread but we never talked about it. It doesn't look familiar so I can't tell who owned it before.Myascape wrote: Was it you that I talked to about the title? I'm trying to figure out who used to own my truck.
I just remembered from your other post about the rear axle missing, that we did PM each other about it. I'll reply in you other post so this one doesn't get too muddied up.
Re: Visited 2 Salvage Yards Today
I bought a tailgate from Doug and got it home to find out that it was covered in bondo... pretty cool there is another Iowa member.

I called a yard in Modesto not to long ago, they said they have a "few" parts for a Swepty, I haven't made it down yet though, cuz I have a donor truck in my back yard.
If you're interested the yard is on Hatch Rd., just north of Carpernter.
