Nce looking bunch of old "binders". We had a truck repair shop here that was a treasure trove of old IH pickups, Travalalls, and Scouts. They had row upon row of trucks for parts. Well, the owner is about 90, and is sick. His son, seems to want to scale back operations. They have been crushing all the big road trucks and tractors and cleaning up the yard. Last week, I was shocked to see that they had scrapped out all but just 3 or Scouts. Everything was gone and the lot cleaned up. Makes me sick to think how many good, rust free parts went to the crusher. Smeone could have made a heck of a good living selling parts over the internet, and in the process, saving some real collectable vehicles.
