My wife says I gotta stop draggin this stuff home. She says it's starting to look like a junkyard behind the barn. I like to walk back there every once in a while and just imagine the possibilities. Does anyone else have this kind of mess they'd like to share.

gashog · 02-06-2003, 11:47 PM

maybe its just me but I like the way it looks.

*racedvl* · 02-06-2003, 11:50 PM

*Piston* · 02-07-2003, 12:19 AM

chevy2racr · 02-07-2003, 01:29 AM

Hey Solver, you wouldn't happen to have any cabs that just need rockers and or cab corners?

da-burb · 02-07-2003, 01:32 AM

67-72 Chevy trucks, the LAYS potato chips of the auto world, "you just can't have one!"

And yes I have it bad..... I just purchased pallet racking so I can organize the parts in the loft!

I will be thining the herd this Spring. I'd like to get it down to a managable 5-6 trucks instead of 15. A truck diet.

Hooter · 02-07-2003, 01:36 AM

*dtlilly* · 02-07-2003, 03:03 AM

Ol Buck, My coral if like wise full. I just added 2 16 foot trailers and 2 truck bed fulls of old V.W. parts. I'm never had any thing to do with these old bugs, but the price was right. Don

mrein3 · 02-07-2003, 08:22 AM

Boy was I going to snitch on da-burb if he didn't post some pictures on this thread.

I go over there to get one part and I end up spending a couple of hours looking at stuff.

Blue Beard · 02-07-2003, 10:03 AM

I move mine around, and rather organize them, she doesn't seem to care then.

Of course I'm retired, and she is still working.....helps alot.

Tynee · 02-07-2003, 10:06 AM

Da-burb,
Is that a medium blue '71 custom 10 on the far left of your first pic? It looks like my trucks' brother. Topper and all.

**1970 CST Short Wide** · 02-07-2003, 10:35 AM

**jerry moss** · 02-07-2003, 11:17 AM

**StingRay** · 02-07-2003, 11:44 AM

Such scenes are things of beauty. Never let anybody convince you otherwise.

**Joesjunk** · 02-07-2003, 01:19 PM

I live in a neighberhood and so far have VERY good neighbors. I do get a little out of hand myself. I have 12 truck right now and have 6 in the garage, some in storage, some at my sisters farm, and so on!!! This is an old pic and some trucks have been sold and new ones to replace them!! I only have 4 in the back drive right now. I am going to have a 2 car garage put in my back yard in a month or two so I can have some more trucks
