Scrapyards

Hey guys, I'm not new to the site, I just discovered this local chapter. I'm in the Trenton , Ontario area and wondering if you know of any good scrapyards in proximity. I have a 1979 F250 4x4 with a 351m and a c6 transmission , and I believe it has an np205 transfer case. I'm in the process of repairing the body and getting it ready to paint. It is in really good shape and runs very well, the biggest problem I have is a leaky oil pan that I am just attempting to acquire and replace. Thanks.

About a Ford truck farm not too far from you.

One of the members on here,truckfarmingcanuck (Jeff) will most likely be able to help you out, he's a Ford truck nut too.

He's even pretty close to you in Napanee just give him a Private message or go to his website www.tjstruckfarm.ca

Thanks for the props Rick.
As for that oil pan Rob I'm 99% sure I have one in storage. Drop me a line and you can come down and have a look at it or I can send you a pic.

As for scrap yards in Trenton I believe there is one called Tafts (sp?) or something like that. If you come down to visit bring your old truck or some pictures of it.

Thanks for the help guys. I know Tafts quite well, been there a few times, its a good place to go, he lets you in to explore remove ,what you want, then he doesn't charge very much. The downside is he's more into scrap metal then vehicles so he sends stuff to the crusher on a regular basis. Hey truckfarmingcanuck, I do come to Napanee quite a bit. Where are you at? I'll surely come down for a visit and I will bring my truck as I drive it daily. Thanks

Hey Rob. Have you ever been up to Reg Browns place. He bleeds blue. He is up around Hastings area. Another is Roblin's. He has a place out in the county (NE of Picton) since '58. He has a lot of NOS stuffed in his barns/sheds.
