72 LWB Fleetside C10 Custom 350/350
97 GMC Yukon 4X4 SLT
Anna, Texas

I usually go every year but I'm gonna skip this year 'cause she's already displeased w/the rolling chassis sitting on the trailer in the driveway + the 2 rear ends, tranny, 3-sets of wheels/tires sitting around the garage!!

I went Thursday, and picked up a few small parts.
I saw a few nice trucks and a lot of overpriced junk. I've thrown away better stuff than some of those guys were trying to sell.

69 GMC LWB 404/400 daily driver
71 GMC LWB 350/700R4 frame-up restoration in progress

I went sat. Walked, and walked, and walked... for about 6 hours, and saw about 3/4 of it. Saw alot of neat stuff, but didn't find any used parts that I was looking for. Bought some new stuff from Kenny's. The best truck deal I saw, and missed out on, was a '72 blue and white lwb cheyenne super 4x4, straight body, with no obvious rust that sold for $1500.00. Most of the trucks were high priced though, imo.

and where is Pate at????
