At the JY...anyone need a Tommy Lift?

Went to the junkyard today, there were only two Dents, both '78's.


I thought this lift was kind of cool.

Even wrecked, this truck was worth some pretty good money. I was very surprised to see it here.

Yeah I've got aa white '97std cab. The wheel tubs alone go for about $500 a piece around here. There's $$ sitting there alright.. You should grab that 12v for your 350 David

I love these old dealership bumpers. This one had been cut on.

This bumper is on a white '78. I like it a lot, I may go back for it.

The clerk at PNP said the Tommy Lift would go for $75.

Before I left, I bought an entire perfect interior out of a '92 Jaguar. I just couldn't leave it to be ruined.

Them Tommy lifts make for a useful shop tool and can be readily modified, hard to leave behind at $75. When I buy parts trucks I look for every possible thing that's of value. Now have a ton of metal, free flat deck truck box, gantry crane system, pto and electric hydraulic lift systems, regular $100 -200 metal runs and a ton of resellable parts.

wow..that dodge/cummins would've been ripped apart as soon as it was put out at the junkyard i go to here in Phoenix, AZ...even if the Cummins is blown up it's still worth some serious $$$....the dents also get stripped to the bone within 2 days of them being put out..i'm kicking myself in the A** for not getting the doors off of that 74 F350 when I was there last.. they were PERFECT..

those bumpers look like the one on my 86 F350 dually... has CASEY LUNA FORD BELEN, NM etched into it

How much do those aftermarket A/C units go for? I've never seen those dealer bumpers before, very cool!

I'm not sure how much the AC would be, but I bet it's cheap. One had the compressor mounted on a 300, the green one was on what I assume was a 302.

This junkyard is a Pick-N-Pull near Waco, Texas. I can make another trip down there tomorrow, I can buy the AC's, that door, the bumpers, I think I will get the air cleaner and various bits off that 300. Does anyone need really clean, beautiful inner fender aprons?
