Rembrant Posted March 23, 2021 Author Share Posted March 23, 2021 Wow! Your vehicles take a BEATING! Even the bumpers rust through, much less the sheet metal. Haha, Gary nothing is spared in the land of rust. That F350 4x4 was broken in two like a dry piece of driftwood, the frame was that bad. haha. I went out for a pair of door conduits for speaker wiring, and a couple parts for the park brake...the little clamp that fastens the two cables to the bottom of the frame, and the spring that goes between the equalizer bar and the cable bracket on the frame. Scored all good parts for $9. That F350 4x4 has a 5.8EFI in it...but I couldn't figure out what year it was (to see if it was the desirable 351w roller block). Where is the certification label usually located on these monster 4 doors? (Rear driver's door wouldn't open btw). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1986F150Six Posted March 23, 2021 Share Posted March 23, 2021 Good eye, David! I missed them. Or at least "it" as we don't know what's on the other side. It is still "them"... look closely at the "C" pillar on the driver's side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good eye This would best be described as hundreds of vehicles lined up in a pasture. Cows and all. It's nice because the livestock keeps it mowed but the downside is that between and in the vehicles you often have to fight massive thorns bushes. It all does make for a nice place to spend time just walking though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rembrant Posted June 26, 2021 Author Share Posted June 26, 2021 And maybe watch your step? I did a junkyard stroll this morning and found an old Bull that gave up her rubber floor mat for my 1980 that is rocking the bare steel floor! And this ugly old Brick gave up a delay wiper module, just because it was there lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rembrant Posted June 26, 2021 Author Share Posted June 26, 2021 Nice scores! Ya, and the old mat cleaned up pretty good (stopped at the car wash on the way home). It’s only the short one that ends where the front seat bolts are, but it’s better than the bare steel floor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
