Hot Rods Salvage Yard Visit

Are you still here by chance. I happen to know where there is a short block and head freshish rebuild you could probably get for a song.

 

Yes, we are stay in Shakopee and leaving for home tomorrow. Today we are headed to Duluth to see a lighthouse.

 

Would be a stretch to get a hold of that 6cyl. Think the owner is back to workin on the road long
hours.
when you go to Duluth, check out the maritime museum as well. Right on the c**** by the light house. Fitgers brewery is cool too and close by.
Railroad museum is just across the road from the c****. Tower up on the hill is cool to. Cant remenber the name. Lots of other stuff that escapes me at the moment.

 

Thank you Mark! Let me confer with the wife and Little Truckdoctor!

 

They are one of the sources I look to when buying old Buick parts. Let's keep them alive!

 

Minnesota is just like Illinois but we have moriarity, just had to rub it in a little more. You missed a great opportunity by not stopping by Marks place, it’s much better in person than in pictures. Mark is a great guy to hang with and he means it when he said he likes to show his collection off.

 

Mark, thank you so much for the invitation, but we are out of time. We will be back, there is so much to do up here. Next year, we are headed to the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally and we go through Minnesota to get up there and I would love to see your awesome collection then if that would be ok with you.

 

I've drooled over posts of their yard before (and now), but this totally caught my eye.....

Look at the low profile wheel on the forklift..........that's getting your moneys worth


Here's a new steering tire if you don't know...


Sorry, back to the thread.....

 

I did notice the shortened tires on the forklift, but didn’t really think about it. They are much shorter than the tires our HAMB friendly 1954 Clark at work!

 

That Yale isn't that old, but looks to get used A LOT....that just means they're busy .

 

Guys at work ***** about our old Clark, but I remind them that at least we have a forklift and it runs and works!
