The Mopar club notified its members a widow was selling all her husband's Mopar stuff. I'm not the guy who can look at weird parts and know what they go to. Everything was $3/each. I got a few things. Tuesday it all goes for scrap metal.
 
So my wife put it out there huh! Well as they say in Monty Python's in search of the holy grail, I'm not quite dead yet,as a matter of fact I am feeling much better today!

Assuming a few close members took the $3 6bbls and Danas before communicating the news? Lol
 
I got this for $3.00 and I tapped the ole broad too!

There was a complete truck axle I didn't need. A few transmissions. There's a ton of chrome trim that I have no idea what it goes to. I told her I might grab it all before the scrappers.

Her name was Gabby so get after it.

More like that old broad in The Father of the Year movie with David Spade.

Several years ago a semi local salvage yard was sold to another operator and his intent was to scrap everything in the yard.

The original owner moved to my area and brought with him a huge collection of early Ford sheet metal as in 28-40 grilles, fenders, doors, trim etc.

When HE died his son felt guilty that these parts were for old cars without any emission controls that polluted the air so he loaded up a 20 yard dumpster and sent it to the scrap heap.

My guess was he had about $50k worth of nearly irreplaceable parts ....

Yet you didn't think to get the word out to the members of THIS forum that might benefit from this stuff?
