Found a brand new set of heavy duty jumper cables and a 4 way lug wrench today.
Guy at the counter said, "There not auto parts, I have no way of tracking them. Enjoy"
I love FREE!

I always make sure to find trucks like mine, or stuff my buddies have. I scored some 302 motor mounts for a mustang for my old boss. Got a new car jack for my Mom. Found tools galore, got a wiring harness for a buddies tow hitch, I find all kinds of stuff. I always find a lot of things when I go. Just depends on how ambitious you want to be. Oh and the complete cd set of Skynard

Oh and the complete cd set of Skynard | Damn it I love junk yards. get a motor for practically nothing along with the tranny. Tools, Cds, jumper cables. people who say they can't find nothing in a junk yard either aren't looking hard enough or just ought to be shot for "not lookin". You guys seen what I found. a 351 windsor completely intact with a tranny, and an 87 302 with matching tranny to boot. several "old rangers" and explorers. all kinds of good stuff.

But there will always be collisions so more parts are on the way  just hope it isn't your truck!!

If I have my way it won't be my truck L.O.L. Usually stay with that junk yard because it won't be long before you find something in there. That usually means they're easy to do business with and they get alot of good stuff. One man's junk is another man's treasure. I try to find the good in everything to the best of my ability.
