48-52 F-3 trucks had 8 bolts pattern. 53-66 F-350 trucks had the 6 bolt pattern. 67 and up F-350 were back to the 8 bolt pattern but with 9/16 lugnuts instead of the 1/2 used on the F-250. I'll keep you in mind Fomoko.

Out at bucks today and got intake manifold for my truck. while out there they had a 73 Lincoln Contenental 2dr. You know the one like on Cannon the TV series. What a shame, they won't sell it and it will get crushed. TSK TSK.

From time to time there are some neat vehicles at Bucks, once in the parts side they will not sell them no matter what. They get them for peanuts and any parts sold off is gravy. When the vehicle gets chrushed is when Bucks really makes the money. Sad but they don`t care on what gets chrushed, a 69 Mustang, 53 Ford F350 I once tried to buy or an 85 Mazda, it`s all the same scrap price.

Yeah Since it became Bucks it has been a disappointment to old car collectors.
For a while they were keeping a section of vintage and rare cars and trucks, now they just crush them also. I think they miss out on a lot of stuff as do us when we need to find those rare and hard to find items just get harder to find to wreckers like this. I just do not understand how they keep going. I have notice they do not have as many people out there looking for stuff, except people with lower incomes that cannot afford the prices at the other more expensive wreckers.
Some times I wish could run the place. I sure would clean up the debris that is strewn around the place and I would sell complete units if persons were interested.

I know that space is valueable but there should be away to save more of the older stuff.

Bucks had a small lot in the front for complete vehicle for sale, the vehicles in the back yard were for parts only, from the back Bucks would not sell a complete vehicle. I haven`t been there for afew years so don`t know if they still have the front sales lot or any complete vehicle sales.

Yeah they still do, but right now they have nothing there. I don't know why they did not put that Lincoln in there. That is a rare car now and this one looked like it could be redone. They also had a very decent looking late 70's T-bird. no rust and the paint was still very good. It was a shame to see cars that are still road worthy and showing paotential soon to be destroyed.
