While in Pittsburgh I had a chance to revisit a junkyard I was at last year, and I found he still has much of the Dodge stuff he had before, and I thought someone here might be interested.
In this yard there is:
Several 61-71 2wd pickups.
2 62-65 1/2 W500s with Winches.
2 1959-60 D100s
1 1939-47 2 ton truck
1 1956 2 ton truck
1 1948-53 1 ton with 9' bed
1 70's Sno Fighter with Dana 60 front axle.
He used to have a FF but he sold it.
There are other Dodge trucks, cars etc in this yard, but I don't remember it all.
If you are into old iron, this guy is worth checking out, he has stuff from the late 30s on up.
Of course, this is PA, so most sheetmetal is JUNK, but lots of good little parts are still there, plus drivetrain.
He wants $1,500 each for the W500s, he says he drove them in there, and they look complete, no lockouts, BAD sheetmetal, flatbeds.
$1,000 for the Dana 60 front axle.
On the rest of the stuff, you will just have to go see.
Talk to Ron, he knows his stuff, but is not a Dodge guy, he collects GM Napco trucks.
The yard is:
Renick' Used Auto Parts
724-283-2166
They are a couple miles off Highway 8, call for directions.
