Here are a few I pulled out of purgatory. I only own one of these today, but I really wish I could keep them all. I'll be bringing home another in a couple weeks, I got no business really doing this, but I can't help it!

Mine was purchased sight unseen from the other end of Oregon in Idaho in 2012. A friend drove me over to pick up and drive back. Almost half way the freeway was closed, and we drove through fairly deep snow in his Subaru on a long detour. Once picked up, we headed back and the freeway was open by then - but it was packed ice and snow, and was a little fun to drive with an unfamiliar truck. The trip was 17 hours end to end.

It was represented honestly by the 91 year old owner, but I wasn't at all thrilled with his taste in wheels and I eventually replaced in the spring with something different!

It seems 5-25 years ago it was easy to find trucks to drag in
All my friends that have made their hobby of it
Say it has pretty much dried up

Don’t be afraid
If you have pictures of your own personal
Wrecking yard
Post those up too !

Nobody here will make fun of you
And ask
‘Why do you have so many trucks ?’

:chevy: We Understand !

I am not biased, I will drag home almost any of them in any weather...
Pic 1 hauled home from texas. (sold)
pic 2 I hauled from Wyoming.
pic 3 is my place.
Pic 4 I hauled from Oklahoma
Pic 5 is the burb a board member bought in texas 10+ years ago, we drove it home and I talked him out of it a couple years ago.

Lastly a 69' C20 Longhorn I pulled from a wrecking yard in Winslow, Az. Its a good truck. Factory Ac, no spin rear end. It had the original 350 but smoked really bad. Now it has a 454, real fun to drive that one.

I'll bet you were standing on a corner when it went by .

Delivery day. Me on the right and my buddy on the left.
Second photo is how she sits now. Took my wife for a spin around the shop in it yesterday. She laughed because the only brakes are the parking brake and it spits and sputters a bit. BUT, it does run, it's getting better all the time, and it's mine.

68 Chev 20; 70 Chev SWB; 67 GMC.

This trailer is the best investment in my truck hobby that I have ever made. In typical fashion I of course bought it before I owned anything that I could tow it with, so I had to borrow a friend's truck for awhile.

Re: ‘Herding Turds’ - Post em up when you dragged them in
 
The winch was the second-best investment. I have lots of friends who are into cars and they don't have trailers and winches because all their junk actually runs! I might at this point finally have more than half of my projects on the road.

Truck had a lot of issues when I brought it home, but I have been slowly making progress over the last few years.

I'm a sucker for 67 stuff. My wife cringes everytime I hook up the trailer. I dragged this 4x4 panel home the other week. I responded to a Kijiji ad for emblems on the weekend after seeing the 67 GMC glovebox emblem. I picked it up today and when I asked "what else you got" I was pleasantly surprised.
