I got a gold mine 4 miles north of my house. I will show you only if you are blindfolded, and in the bed of my truck with a tarp over you head. LOL
You can pick and pull and haggle for the cost, its right off Hwy 13 north of Bolivar, south of Humansville. Called "Roy Scotts" not to sure of the #. LOTS of 70-80 ish Ford trucks 2wd/4wd 1/2 & 3/4, lots of cars too.
Another one is off Hwy 13 at the first Bolivar exit, use to pick and pull now you tell them they go get it
I think Stutzmans it like that now too?

Names
DUDE YOU TOLD THE NAME??????????????
I've never heard you tell the name of "The Secret Junk Yard"???
I do now have some more things. Ka'Bluey "HAD" factory A/C. I've wanted the box off the firewall since I've had the truck. I have no ententions of ever putting a/c in. So we removed that box yesterday. Now I have an open hole there. So I need the factory pieces to cover the hole, and to install my heater core again.
In one of my fits yesterday in the garage tripping over/looking for tools. I (in a rage) grabbed my fan shroud. Did you have any idea how easy they can bust when hitting the pavement. I do now..... Need one of those too.

Ha passing the word of the place is no big deal, only I know the secret
"knock/password" to get past security. LMAO
Will put your needs on "the ever growing list" of things to look for, for everyone. No problem you'all, anything for a fellow certified FORD NUT.

Well I've only been to a few wrecking yards here in Missouri, Compared to the ones I went to in California, they're all pretty much a big joke. But there is one I like, it's Nichols(probably spelled it wrong) Street Auto Salvage. It's as you might have guessed, is on Nichols Street, North of West Bypass in Springfield. They have loads of ford trucks. I got my grill for 35.00 and a wireing harness section for 5.00.

Talk about extra stuff
Sweet info, I'm there. I think the Joplin area has a lot of yards and Harrison Ark? I have hit a few in Ark, not bad but a pretty good drive for me now.
"Clements" in Branson used to be pretty good, but I have not been there in a while.
My backyard is getting to look like one to, 78 Red/White still for sale, ck Mo chapter 4 sale forum. Finally sold 79 Crew (4 Door) 3/4 2wd, to some east coast folks.
I am almost like Ches need to make a list, don't mind the Dodge and HUMMER run flat rims.

Rich, what size is that chrome wheel and do you have 4 of them? I have stockers on my 93, not sure if they are 16s or 16.5. But those rims would look sweet on it. My tire are almost new, so wouldn't want to replace them.

Factory off my 99 3/4 Dodge 16x8.5?, yes I have 4, tires are pretty worn out.
(disclaimer statement) I was not meaning to try and sale any item in this post, just wanted to show what I got. (do not want to get in trouble, by big brother)
Not sure on the hub size metric? Make me an offer, can bring to G2G.

Monett
I found a place in Monett that is full of Ford trucks and vans.Old iron all over the place, even a few Vega's, Pacer, and Pacer Wagon's. It's a repair/tow shop/ used parts. I got my 2 bbl there, only $30 and seems to work fine.
