My Junkyard Trip
Me and the wife spent last weekend touring junkyards, and found one that seemed to be a resting site for bumps and dents.
Apparently the price of scrap metal has gone up and most of the other salvage yards around here have crushed their old trucks

Grab the rear sport bumper off the white truck!!!!!
Also, other things i would definately grab (if prices arn't rediculous)
White '69:
The '69 grill, that thing looks way too nice.
The '69 ranger grill headlight bucket (drivers side), and hte blinkers
The rear tailgate panel
Orange/white truck:
CB mount if you're into that
bed trim
That '71 grill and the steel grill look nice too. Damn just grab everything

Hell she pretty much bought my bump in the first place. Even had to climb over a few cars to get to that Ranger XLT.HayHauler wrote:wait a min......... your wife goes to junk yards with you? she sounds like a keeper!
I think she's holding out for a '66 Mustang once I get the bump done.
