    We just got our parts chasing truck on the road. Made me wonder....might be interesting to see what other shops are using to grab parts.

    I suppose my '60 F100 is a "shop truck" of sorts ... it's my only vehicle and my daily driver, but I do haul the occasional engine, etc.

    And then there's the scrap metal ...

    There is another thread about shop trucks already, but I'll post the 62 that I bought, and built for a shop truck, and use daily.

    My 'shop truck' is my daily driver '01 Ford Ranger. I drive it enough that I have 191,000 on it over six years (I bought in in '02 with 7800 miles on it). One million miles or bust!
