Probably was but unfortunately not worth a lot either way, kinda feel bad bout it but those feelings subside every time I get the cash in my hand.
did it have a Omaha bed on it?

Believe so, all wooden whatever it was, the truck was a '54

Amazing what a 69.95 harbor freight tow bar and 70 pair of implement lights can get moved

$60 huh? that's a great deal....... I've yet to buy anything from harbor freight despite my many needs! lol!
We don't have much in the way of a business strategy. Like no business plan. Which I say to torment all my friends who are VCs or MBAs. That's always entertaining. The deal is, it's a mixture of luck and persistence.

I love old chit and it's tough scrapping some of that stuff but a man got to choose between having a acreage of cool stuff that doesn't really sell that well or pay the bills. When we are all rich and not so famous, we can open a museum.

I recently rolled outta bed and not functioning to well...is that a Bronco or a Scout?
And seeing the old Chev makes me hurt inside. Seriously nobody had interest in that truck for a little more than scrap value?

Scout
Rural scrapper
Indeed a scout, or what was left of a scout. Ive received a lot of flack bout that old Chevy, I'm sad to say not a lot of value there cept for scrap. I had a hard time doing it but was just too old and the old wood bed was held on by tin and wire.Originally Posted by Jonniebrass

Last Fridays haul, got a call my man at the appliance shack and got full load of frigs, washers, dryers, stoves, 5 window acs and a tv I have no idea what I'm going to do with.
That's stacked 3 wide 2 tall front to back with 5080 # of appliances.

Too bad diddnt get the call last week before the price dropped off 30 a ton
How, out of curiosity and I feel like a idiot for asking...how exactly did you connect that tow bar to the truck? I thought the tow bar was supposed to have brackets welded or bolted to the frame for the bar to connect with pins. There it looks flush to the bumper with chains strapping it down.
The reason I never went the route of tow bar is I always thought you had to bolt brackets to the frame...
