Started the process today,fluid being drained and driveshaft,linkage and othe parts removed and will remove monday after work. -
It had a brand new step bumper in the bed that the seller said was NOS but I figured it was a cheap replacement but when I went to get it out it was heavy so its OEM.

I have a 1/2 ton with a rusty frame so I picked up a rolling 3/4 ton frame and was going to build one,on paper it sounded good but reality set in and did not want to do all the work so I bought one that just needs a little tinkering. I picked up a 89 F 250 that everything works except for the a/c,old age must be setting in since I do not want big projects any more.

I have a few of them.

Might be able to have the covers resewn if they survive being removed.

They are aftermarket replacement spacers made to fit most vehicles.

Those seats might not be in good shape,my 50 had them on since new and the original covers were rotten.

It was a bystander and every time I seen it I had to tell the owner what engine and trans it has,the currant owner was told it is the original 303. -
I sold this 53 Olds about 20 years ago,kind of knew where it was until a few years ago then it disappeared. It was green when I sold it but has been painted black with flames and got a air ride system,still has the interior I put in it back in 95 but a little ratty now. Still has the 59 engine and trans but the Sears under dash a/c has been removed and someone removed the hidden stereo system and made it obvious.

Finding old fashioned two lane roads for long distance travel
junkyardjeff replied to ply33's topic in General Discussion
A few years ago I took my 55 Sunliner on a trip to Michigan hoping to take the route it most likely was taken the last time it was up there in 1967 but most had been converted to highways. I did have my portable Sirius with me and listened to 60s music the whole trip. -
Late last year I bought a 90 Lincoln Town car and last night for the first time looked through the owners manual and found the window sticker,it was a little more then 34,000 dollars. I like the idea of getting a 34,000 dollar car for 1000 and since its a Cartier edition I would imagine its more then a base Town car but just how much more.

She and her teenaged kids were at his house yesterday so her kids got in her car to smoke some weed,looks like they can afford to buy weed but no mention of getting me any money. -
Can Rock Auto parts be trusted to be OEM quality?
junkyardjeff replied to mike6024's topic in General Discussion
The only thing I do not like about RA so far is if you purchase multiple parts they could come from different warehouses and each item will have a separate shipping cost. -

The neighbor and his kids are avoiding me now and I am probably the bad guy for wanting her to pay for the damage she caused,maybe it will be a good thing and they will not come over borrow anything now. I will wait and see how karma deals with her.
