most of these trucks are just part's trucks speaking of part's
"GOT PART'S"

ljbear · 02-08-2003, 07:18 PM

Some of you asked how to find trucks. Besides the always looking around, hitting the classifieds and junk yards I have another idea. I told my UPS man what I was looking for and before I new it I had a line on 5 trucks within a few miles of the house. I was looking for 55-59's at the time and couldn't believe how many of the jems were sitting, just waiting to be rescued. It helps living in a rural area where trucks are more common that cars. If you have a good UPS man give it a try, those guys have access to everyone's stuff.
