tour of an OLD yard in WI

Well on monday I went and picked up my oilpan at this OLD yard. it was 99% trucks most ranging from 66' back to the 30's. what a blast the owner is 81 yrs old and had a story for most of vehicles in there. how ever due to his age he has started scrapping out. he is scrapping the bigger stuff out first. He was stripping down an old FWD 6X6. Most of the stuff is Chevy and GMC early 60's. A complete 50? F-2? ford truck. And Internationals. The binders range back to the 30's and 40's with some models being very complete. alot of the Glass is delaminating though. ask away and Ill tell you if I saw it and give a phone #......some of this stuff needs to be saved. Again this Yard is in Southern WI.


P.S. I saw the UGLIEST C.O.E. there too, a 60's Dodge 600

 

where in wisconsin? any cool motors in anything?

 

Some GMC 6-s a couple of Flat head 4/6 s and a 4 cyl Detroit Diesel 2 stroke. other than that No nothing real cool. I was hoping to see a GMC 12 but didnt see one of them either

Edit: I dont know what the Ford had.... I didnt open the hood on that

 

My brother's working on a 1951 half ton International. I know he could use a good grille, among other parts - did you see anything there like this?

 

yep there was a few of those. or real close

Edit: one may have been a 4x4 too.... dont really remember very overwhelming, So much odd stuff. There was a Really cool 48' there.

 

no pics? you know we really dig pics!

 

Ok were is the yard, if your in SOUTH CENTRAL WI I need to go Im looking for a 261 chevy inliner

 

Yea where at in southern WI?

 

....if you wanna help save some of this stuff, at least let us know the location so we can decide if we wanna go check it out. Thanks.

 

This Post Is Useless Without Pics!!!

 

I'd like to know where too...I'm in milwaukee

 

yeah where is this place ...

 

Without pictures or a locatin this is just alot cheep talk. Why did you bring up the subject?

 

Location.....Location......Location....

 

killer story bro.... coulda used more vampires though....

 

guess we get to get teased today and maybe someday he will post a location or pics

 

Ill try to get back there and get pics. and I am giving the location

Beside Id like to see if he has any hydromatics in there.... So i need a return trip

 

So... in the meantime while he is crushing everything people are just supposed to search for it? what's so bad about telling people the location it's not like its a yard full of deuces that nobody has claimed.

 

If it's in south central wi., it's probably under water now!

 

nope he's not crushing.... hes scrapping. physically dismantling the stuff and hauling it to the scrap yard. and yes he is 81 and doing this by himself......so no im not making the location public. but am letting people know

 

oh and by the way..... Id be willing to bet he dosent ship and is cash only. just FYI

 

O Yah......I think i know where it is.....going to get all the 32!!!!!! HAHAHAHAH


Thanks zbuickman!!!!


if only they knew....
