If I had land I'd absolutely be a hoarder. I'd buy old trucks and line them up and walk around and look at them.

Frustrating to see all these parts and I can't beg, borrow or steal parts for my project. I had begun to think squares were all gone.

Off the main highway all you can see designating the entrance to thebyard is this transmission case bolted to the top of a post-used to be painted flourescent pink so you can easily see it-faded now.
The entrance is uphill and through a gate then levels off for anout an 1/8th of a mile before actually getting to the yard....which covers about 80 acres and has between 3500-4500 squares at any one time. The owner told me he's totally turned over his truck incentory 3 times since the early 1990's! So that makes close to 15,000 trucks have met their end days in this old country salvage yard! |

^ Cool story and thanks for sharing. Any more pics of the squares to share? . |
Re: Abandoned, neglected square body trucks rotting away...
I do somewhere...I'll dig them up. Most country guys onlynpick those trucks clean for drivers doors and 3/4 and 1-ton running gear parts since they are still popular in rural farm communities as 4x4 toys

From my understanding, they were modified by a conversion company. Apparently at the time of ~$6k. Does anyone have a brochure or additional info on the company that performed these conversions? . |
