I loaded up the trailer yesterday with a bunch of scrap rotors and parts around the shop here, went to the junk yard since the prices of scrap are up right now, as soon as I pull in, I see a 2nd gen truck completely smashed with the roof cut off, and I notice the tailpipe. You bet, a mighty fine Cummins in the twisted metal. I bought the two rears, motor and tranny for $250.00!!!!!!!!! The only thing I see broke externally is the timing gear cover (the aluminum part). The odometer says 143K. Finally I get a good deal.

 

are you going to repower something or is this spare parts for yours? 250 is a steel IMO ( pun intended)

 

Spots I'm not really sure. I have a 76 Crew Cab that has a real nice body, That might make a good donor, And it is a REAL Dodge crew cab. For now I'll just go out every night and OOOO and Ahhhh over it and think of how much an idiot this guy at the salvage yard was for not knowing what he had.

RicK:

Hey JYD, I fuelled up in Pine Grove PA Tuesday night about 9:00. Was hauling a load from Butler Bldg in Annville to Welland ON.

 

The next time your in the area give me a shout

Will do, BTW, will you be changing your handle to Lucky Dog? What a great deal. He got all the money he wanted for his stuff and you got more than enough parts for your money.

Everybody is happy, everybody wins. Now if'n you don't crow too much, he may just do it another time

 

Annville???? I went to college there!

 

I think you shoul give Haulin in dixi a good deal( Bill) if you look at his post you will see what I mean
