It was without a doubt, the best yard around this area that is for sure.


Are you serious!? They crushed all thos trucks??? That is insane, with it getting harder and harder to find parts how could someone have the gutts to actually really crush them! I vote for a preservation program to save al 2nd gen and square body trucks on this planet!

But honestly, that is a shame, small things like the pedal assemblies, the trim or interior stuff are so hard to come by....

Up in the north east here, they crushed about every old truck there was a few years back, so no truck of any kind older than 15 years or so around here anywhere....

Do you have any idea where else I could find OEM trim for the body and behind the cab? and also the two chrome stripes you have in your grill, haven´t been able to find any for 14 years that I own the truck now...

Thanks for the info (even when really sad) Larry!
