Junkyard crawl... northern edition
Went up to alaska for 8 days to visit my brother. I flew in, so no tools or truck to haul things. Still had alot of fun and hit a few yards up just to see what was there. I was surprised how many older vehicles are in the yards. On with the pics....
And yes pic 3 is a set of 4, 15x8 steelies that are probably so buried they may never be found again!

Re: Junkyard crawl... northern edition
That's a shame about those 6 lug steelies. I bought 2 at a swap meet that had been used for a mailbox post. They had a couple of welds to clean up on each.

Re: Junkyard crawl... northern edition
And more yet...
Pic 1 is a radio the was a ceiling mount in a c-70 type truck. I should have grabbed it, but shipping from alaska is VERY expensive, so i was picky about what i bought.

Re: Junkyard crawl... northern edition
The first pictures I thought, "Junkyard or scrap heap?". It's good to see they do salvage parts. That K/20 Suburban!! I'm speachless

Re: Junkyard crawl... northern edition
Looks like a fun trip! That roof .out radio pod would have been cool to have. I saw one like it in a C/60 years ago.

Re: Junkyard crawl... northern edition
A good while back I spotted a '71 K/20 Suburban sitting. Looked it over and it had all the options you could want. They had pulled the badass engine they built and selling w/o engine. And I had a '71 truck 350 ready to slip in. I thought they wanted too much for back then and I only messed with rust free. This thing had pretty bad rust. Years later I meet Jeff's Bowtie and he knew exactly what Suburban I was talking about. I don't think there's a 67-72 sitting within site of the road in the MD/VA/PA/WVA 4-state area we don't know about. both have eagle eyes for these trucks. You never saw such a suburban in this area. I wish I had coughed up the money
