    Here is a friend's yard. He has a number of ADs that he recently aquired. The blue 54 and the yellow 53 are drivers, the others are parts trucks, and the black one is getting the slam treatment. It has my old rearend in it.

    Here is a teaser for some new wallpaper...

    And here is the album. Yes, most everything is for sale. I can get you in touch if needed. He also has several task force trucks, 55-57 chevy 4 doors, etc. in the woods.

    Everythings for sale at B.J.'s yard. I drug the yellow 52 down to davidack4's house Sunday before last. I was working intown for the week and staying at his house. We worked on it every night until at least 12:30, sometimes after 2. We rebuilt the carb, new fuel lines, ground out rust, pulled al the glass and installed new rubber, replaced the back glass, the driver's door glass, both vent windows, along with vent window rebuild...I will post a tech on that soon, pulled the doors and installed weatherstripping, painted the interior and sorted out some wiring issues. Also an electric wiper conversion. What a week.

    I'm meeting B.J. in about an hour to go pull a Dakota frame from the junkyard to put under one of his trucks. Should be interesting.

    At the end.....more trucks and parts have followed him home. The 47 blue truck is really nice, and he will probably make it a daily driver.

    When that 47 stands still long enough for you to paint it you should restore it to the "road service" paint job with all the different lettering that can barely be seen now.

    Put in a good drive train, touch up the dents and lettering and call it good.
    Very nice looking wheels also.

    Nice.
