Hey everyone, this is my first post, and I am totally new to this BB stuff. Computer has only been used for parts shopping! What a great board! It's nice to know there are so many other people out there doing the same thing.
Here's my story:
Was working on my mother-in-law's old Corolla and needed an exhaust flange. Nobody had one, so I went to a local wrecking yard and stumbled upon a 68' short fleet. No grill, motor or trans, but the body wans't bad and the bed was excellent because of the canopy. After talking to the guy at the yard, I gave him $400, and he delivered it to me that day. Nothing like saving them from the crusher! I now have 2! Will send pics as soon as I figure out how. Thanks!
