Things that go bump in your town

[cghstrojan08]

I'd buy a garage like that but I am not aloud to have one.

may i ask why?

i think that your parents are obviously VERY jealous of your bumpside, and would like it to be more rusty so they wont feel so jealous.

Ya right. No, I was told it "trashed up the yard." I think they look fine. Instead, my poor bump rusts.

why not get a garage and paint it to look like what you would see if it wasnt there?

[cghstrojan08]

Out of our whole 6 acres, I guess there is no place for it.

[1971ford]

it is obviously jealousy in your parents then if you have 6 acres, but cant get bump protector

Not dents but still OK. I wouldn't mind having a nice old Travelall 4x4.

my grandpa had a old travelall years ago when i was a kid. it was a newer model than those. it was afew years older than the last ones they made. My dad has a old international crewcab wrecker that is all beat to heck. but he still uses it almost every day he is working on something big. it is great for moving large parts outside and pushing and pulling trucks in and out of the garage.

Hi sorry for the dumb question, I'm new here, but what exactly does the bump mean? I keep hearing everyone say bump and I don't have a clue what is going on.

It refer's to the bump on the side of the body on all of the 67-72's, a dent is a 73-79 do to the dent that runs down the side of the body, a slick is a '61-66 but idk why they got that name for sure.

I wouldn't mind an old C series crewcab international.

My neighbor spotted this one a while ago. F350 DRW 6 16.5" one piece dually wheels. Beat up Ford factory flatbed. Haven't looked that closely at it yet. Owner says I can have it.

What? You haven't got it home yet?

[FLATBEDFORD]

Just got off the phone right before I posted. I swore I'd NEVER bring home another parts truck! But I really want those racks

[AlleyCat]

Parts trucks are a PITA. I've got a few to scrap myself. The good thing is you can get what you need, maybe keep some spare stuff then sell the rest for scrap.It's a win win situation.

I don't have a trailer or a friend with a wrecker. I just finished cleaning up after the last parts truck last week. 2500lbs, $184. You only get the $$$ if you bring it to them in pieces. They'll take a complete one for nothing, you only get paid if you bring it to them. Did I mention no trailer?

Wish I was a tad closer. I could borrow a tiltbed from work for the cost of the fuel.My boss likes dent highboys and Brockways.
