Going Hunting - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

mattsohc · 01-16-2011, 09:25 AM

Hello Everybody
I am thinking about making a trip south to go hunting for some parts. I currently live in Toronto, Canada. So finding rust free parts is a very hard thing to do. I am thinking about heading to Tennessee or that area. I was wondering if anyone could give me a the names or locations of some wreckers that have a good inventory of our trucks.
I am looking for some doors, a front fenders and some little assorted items.

Thanks forthe help

Have you tried Bill's Truck Shop in Courtice, they sell used parts brought up from the US.

I have gotten a few items from Bill's. I am always looking for a deal,
Plus I think it will be fun to go try and find something myself. Plus i am sure it's warmer there then here. (-27 right now)

Salidaxle, Your offer is tempting though it would 27 Hours of straight driving to get there.
Want to meet half way??? LOL

If I was going to be back in the K-W area I would bring a trailer load with me!
Not planning a trip this year, sorry

it's cold, wet and plain nasty here in TN lately...go to Arizona and get those rust free parts!

I wish I could, but it is a little to far.
Anyone else have any ideas for local yards?
I understand that TN must not be the best place now but it beats Ontario any day!
