Too often have I seen a truck that has just arived at a junkyard in almost perfect shape...then couple months later it will be worthless. One junkyard here does that alot. He will bring in nice cars, then you come back a month later and its worthless. He will have been pushing it around with the dozer's and skidders.

On the same note: There is a 50 ford 2 door in my area. My grandpa said it has been in the same spot for over 25 years. Said when he first saw it, it was pefect....even the hubcaps still on it shined. We asked the guy last week if he would sell it. He said his "son" didnt want to get rid of it. If they guy thought anything at all of the car it wouldnt have sat in the same spot for 25+ years uncovered. It has grass growing up to the door glasses, and thorn bushes covering the back. Car has been sitting so long id imagine the chassis is rotted away by now.
