Grand Island huh?

-Jake

 

well, not Gi, i'm in CC and dodge is at junk yard in chapman

 

Oh boy. Do they have anything else there that'd be worth me going to look at? I'm from Chapman...well.......6th Road anyway....

-Jake

 

you live that close and haven't been there, [jim] my brother owns the yard and he has tons of old fords along w/my toys

 

Yea.....pretty lame, I know. I may have to go over there sometime. I need a new seat for my '69 and I'm sure a few other things that I can't think of at the time.....I don't have a whole lot of money laying around right now for it though...

-Jake

 

he's cheap and great guy for info on them older fords,stop out and check in and go snoop thru the trucks for parts,i'm usually there most of the time including weekends if weather is good,just a mile west of chapman on 30, can't miss it

 

Yep, south side of the highway. I'm pretty familar with that. I've driven by and seen all the "junk" but never stopped or anything cause I don't see many 67-72's from the road....I'll stop sometime when I'm bored and see what he has to offer. What are his hours?

-Jake

 

most of the older stuff is inside,if the gate is unlocked he's open, just go to back door,right now car body prices are up so he's shipping alot of good stuff off,hate to but cant keep it all

 

Yea. I'll check it out. I doubt I'll have time this weekend, but maybe next weekend I can swing over and check it out.

-Jake

Yep, this thread stayed on topic........

 

k,gotta head to dealers auction in lincoln tomarrow morning so going to call it a night,might have a black aftermarket dashpad for your truck still in box somewhere,have to dig that up,i and another guy has that carlot next to the grain towers in chapman on 30 too,he's more chevy tho,anyway hope to see ya, laters

 

Yeh Ive seen that junkyard. Yes an alot off old Fords there. Next time I will stop an take a look. Like I was telling Jake there was definitly a Ford dealer around that area at one time. So how did your brother get in to this business.

 

he rebuilds starters and alt.and needed cars and trucks for them parts off of and ended up w/junkyard,

 

gotta rework that comment, its a resting place for old fords,not a junkyard,lol

 

How far is Chapman outside of Omaha?
