I seem to find a lot of sought after items in the junk yard. Found a "remote" driver mirror, thin aluminum side trim, Super Camper Special badges, full Lariat trucks, ect. I want to start picking some of these items to collect. What are some of the harder to find items that can be had in junk yard fodder? Some to keep, some to trade.

 

older style wheel

 

Flexible A/C ducts, clips that hold fuel/brake lines, any green interior parts, inside hood release.

 

I always scope for the green stuff!

 

What year truck?

 

Damn! Been hunting for one of those in good shape for ahwile. Nice score.

 

The wheel from a bump,fits right on our trucks,,,I think also a comet.

Those repro tho are like cheep,not even close to the hefty solid feel of the original,dont wast your time or return shipping.Ask me how I know

 

The option is there....

 

I know right! My 2012 is gem green to. Yet the dealers say that is now the hardest to sell colour in F150's... I wanted a 2015 in that but they wouldn't do it without a deposit...



back on topic, Cigar lighter, *****, mirrors, WORKING radios are most common thing I look for.

 

Western mirror/Jr Western mirror head with "Rotunda", instead of "FoMoCo" or the Ford oval logo.

RARE. Anybody have a spare? I have only one because the PO broke the other and used a dime store replacement.

 

I'm look'n for the 2 cold air ducts on the air cleaner. The rectangular one is short & small of only a couple of inches wide. The other one is round. It has a bracket that bolts to
the radiator support on our 75 / 390. I can email you the picture of them.
Thanks,

My SC might lose it's interior hood release as I can't convince myself that I like it, plus my brother has one in his 79.

Did they put any green interiors in the newer trucks? I'd really like to update the front seat but don't remember seeing them newer than 79

 

The Ford Sport steering wheels, Gt bars, left side battery tray( I need one more of those). Factory CB stuff all of it, but most important the antennae.
