My most recent haul [IMG]http://i1255.photobucket.com/albums/...3/1b72b6e2.jpg[/IMG]
Tater, any chance that's a runner?
please dont scrap that one
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
And oh yeah 40$ worth of 3/8" chain for safety chains, and keeping it legit
dont scrap it. they dont make em like that anyomore, heck you know how "fly" you would look scrapping in that!? heck i'd probably give you all my scrap just because of that ride of yours.
$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
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.

Nice load there Tater.
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...
what i want to know is how do you steer ing towed load
we sucks when we have to make decisions on those old ones. we bought a 65 f100 last week straight body, ended up selling it for less than scrap just to keep from scrapping her :( we still made $100 , those tow bars work great when the tires have air, we done a grain truck early this year, we used our torch and cut holes in the bumper and towed it that way, nice scores by the way tater
Yep tow bars work great just don't get in a hurry when towing a 2 ton truck or it'll put you in the ditch if you have to brake hard. Thanks Cory
so glad yer doing well }:<{)
I don't know bout doing well but I make enough to get by and that's still better than not making enough to get by. Appreciate it all the same old dude, jus hope your getting along good too
Thats one hell of a tow in! haha
Nice hauls!!!
That's why I use grade 8 5/8" bolts only with this tow bar.
that"s why i don"t flat tow
Dropped this off today

Cool. Man I can't wait till I can get a tandem trailer. Did it pay for itself pretty quick?
After six months of owning it you'll wonder how you ever get along without it, and yeah it'll pay for itself mad quick.
