pull and save deals.
 

I have to start sharing the pull and save finds. There is lots of crazy stuff for cheap. Here is the first. Today a 63 GMC and a 65 Chevy. The GMC was beat to death. But it had s few things. Mostly the 61-63 window trim. The Chevy was nice but plain. It still had the pb pad even though the booster had been swapped out to manual .

Nice! Can't even find trucks that old here in yards I have been to in the southeast.

I can't imagine not having vintage rigs in the yards. I have grabbed 5 60-61 hoods. 3 GMC and 2 Chevrolet. 22.00 with the latch. Plus 4.00 for the lights. Both of these have good hoods. But I can't store any more later hoods. Plus they are still setting about 20 per year. Last week I scored a 67-72 tool box and door and the box section for 14.00. Plus a 4.10 ho52 with a no spin for 47.00. No charge for the red radio delete plate.

The oldest stuff normally kept around here is about 15 years. Road salt reduced anything older to a useless pile of scrap that disappeared in '09 when scrap prices went sky high.

There are a couple yards still hoarding old stuff, but most of it is salt destroyed scrap.

Bummer. The 2 pull and save yards turn everything over every 6 weeks. About 2000 rigs. Pre 1980 rigs are probably about 300-400 of that . All makes . My guessed on 60-72 GM trucks is about 50-60 a year.

My comment may a tad off subject, but we're lucky here in our dry climate. It used to be I could buy an almost complete vehicle for parts for the one I was building for 3-4 hundred dollars. Then sell what was left for scrap/trade.
Once in awhile, you could find complete cars/trucks in farmers junk yards from the '30s-40s that were "running when parked". Not any more. Scrappers would come from other states combing the back roads buying scrap, but that's pretty well cleaned out our source of good clean, mini-rust parts.
So, the high scrap prices has sure taken some of the fun out of our project building here.

I could use that 60-63 windshield moulding if you decide to part with it. Not too fun to package that squirrelly stuff, but if you will let me know. Got a 63 Chevy custom cab someone switched the windshield out on and they never re-installed the chrome.

do you find them in u-pull-it yards? I may have to go find a hood, the apple of my eye needs a hood + 2 doors, if i had all of that when i rolled it home, she could sit in my front driveway without me being worried about thief's
