I went and scoped out a '78 E-150 in a junkyard near my dad.

The factory Ford portholes were cool, but one was cracked and the other wasn't worth (to me) pulling without a pair. The van had some great vintage parts inside that I scooped up.

Good hunting. Back in the day I use to go to Pick A Part in my hometown. When you dig and retrieve your own parts its such a great feeling. smile

I could spend every day scrounging yards if I was allowed to. Wife would kill me though. That Ford looks like it was a nice ride for someone back in the day.

Some things I have spotted recently.

I left them because I didn't want to haul them out of the yard.

Not many vans lately. On Sunday I went to a yard that my brother had visited a few months ago for C10 parts and it was completely empty! Not a shred of anything around. Total bummer because it was in a crummy part of town and usually had older cars inside.

I went to a junkyard near my dad today to scope out a 1978 Dodge van that just landed there last week. Not much was left inside of it other than pics of dead people and nude women from an obscure Cuban tabloid.

I was able to score this Keystone for $9. I'll take it.

Also, looks like someone was working on their painting with lace and tape lines.
