Junkyard "Must Grab" Items
I'm about to go hunt for a new 1990s F150 seat for my F100 at the junkyard to do my seat swap. While I'm there I might as well see what other things they have for bumpside trucks. What are some cool items that you've found for your trucks at the junkyard?

Re: Junkyard "Must Grab" Items
All the parts for our trucks are worth their weight in gold, my friend! But seriously, F600 gauge clusters are always cool to find. If you can find rust-free sheetmetal at a decent price-you could make some project money pretty easy. I think there was an old thread about this, but I can't post a link with my phone.
