saved one today now with pictures
« on: March 12, 2009, 09:18:42 pm »
 ;D went to my local salvage yard to pick up a used motor for a camry I'm working on
for my daughter . when I pulled in I noticed a 86/87 chevy silverado short wide
sitting out front with no tag ..... could it be   ......for sale ?

turns out someone had come in looking for cash and sold it to them cheap.
I asked if it was for sale and was told salvage title parts only and my heart sank
I went in and started to load my motor and the general manager comes out and says he does have a
good title but wants $800 for it -SOLD
It
IS STRAIGHT
RUNS GOOD
HAS THE USUAL RUST PLACES BUT MINIMAL SIZE
IS A SILVERADO WITH FULL POWER
AND I CAN'T WAIT TO GET IT HOME TOMORROW
I PROMISE TO POST LOTS OF PICS
