Old Ford Truck & Junkyard Artist Links
Well, they're not all in a junkyard - but they're old!
Post Comments on the Your Comments Page (see pages listed under pictures at the top of this page)
This site sells new Ford truck parts. Below is a short list of parts they sell:
All parts sold on AmericanTrucks are aftermarket parts. The site will ship any part for free to anywhere in US and also to parts of Canada. Many of the parts including the F150 rims are quite heavy and difficult to ship. Despite the weight the site still offers free shipping as well as great pricing on the items they sell.
Click on the link above to get to George Davis' site. Also, there are many more photos by Mr. Davis on another site. Every one of the photos on "another site" represents a different gallery of Davis' photos, so click on each photo if you want to see lots more photos of the same subject. There are many more photos here than on the Cool Old Truck site, but don't miss the Cool Old Truck site itself, as different photos are shown there, plus all of Mr. Davis' iron artwork, and links you might be interested in.
OTHER JUNKYARDS
Way Out Salvage, Inc.
"An all VW Salvage Yard in the Ozark Mountains of Arkansas"
The link above is to the first "Photo Gallery"page.
IF YOU'RE EASILY FRUSTRATED, READ BELOW AS IT EXPLAINS HOW TO GET TO THE PICTURES YOU WANT TO SEE.
SCROLL DOWN THE FIRST PAGE YOU GET TO, to where there are the small pictures. Only the first four pictures (as of the day I saw this) actually link to anything, and the others do not get you anywhere, but you can come back to this page if you accidentally click on them. However, when you click on any of those four pictures (the first row, 3 across, and the one on the left in the second row), you will get to more photos of that subject. But that's not all - Don't miss the "Virtual Tour!"
GO PAST THESE LITTLE PICTURES (most of which don't get you anywhere anyway), AND CLICK ON THE ROUND PHOTO TO GET TO THE "VIRTUAL TOUR" PAGE.
Once you click on that round photograph, you get to the "Way Out Salvage Virtual Photo Tour" page. It appears that if you click on ANY of the round photographs on this "Tour" page, you will get to the screen where this "Tour" takes place and you can just stay there, if you can figure out how to make the thing go.
FIRST you may have to install something, depending on what you already have on your computer, that makes this kind of slide show work - I had to do that and it literally took just a couple of seconds and so far my computer hasn't acted funny.
SECOND, you will want to get to the next picture, and the way to do that is to scroll down a tiny bit, to just below the caption under the picture, and there are the CONTROL ARROWS. Just click the one that aims to the right to get to the next picture. Now you can relax and look at the tour... All you have to do is click that right arrow when you want to go to the next one.
P.S. Those floating maple leaves on the first page are a little odd, aren't they?

HOW TO FIND WHAT YOU'RE
LOOKING FOR IN A JUNKYARD
RESTORATION - JEWELS IN THE JUNKYARD - SELF-SERVE
-- This article tells you how to approach a self-service junkyard expedition to search for what you'll need to restore a car.
-- "When you're renovating an old car, classic automobile junkyards can be an invaluable resource for finding the parts you need at affordable prices."
-- A shorter article than the previous one, it says at the beginning: "When you go by the junk yard down the way, you probably don't think of it as a gold mine of auto parts, but it really is. What should you do when you are thinking about looking for your auto parts there? What is going to happen while you are in the junk yard?"
