Central TX bumpers

Post by fireguywtc »

I went to the pick n pull in Belton recently and scored some decent stuff for me. I wanted to let the other local members that might be interested that there is some good stuff there right now. The place is feast and famine for bump and dent parts so move quicly. There is a few bumps and dents there. One 3/4 ton bump has disc front brakes, and there is a early dent 1/2 ton with disc brakes as well. There is some good body panels and such as well, and one of the bumps is a ranger xlt that has the factory AC box in the cab. Its missing some stuff like the vent louvers inside of it, but the box itself looks to be in good shape.

Did you notice if there was a decent radiator support for a bump?

The two I was looking at seemed like pretty nice pickups with good body panels. I didn't pay close attention to the rad supports but I think they were good to go, I am not for certain though.

There is a yard west of Ft worth on 199 that has a load of bumps and several have core supports woth harvesting. I've only picked up small stuff out there and she seems pretty fair on her prices and the yard man is a old friend of mine(actually was my school bus driver when I was in 6th and 7th grade). Eagle Mountian auto salvage. Haven't been out in several month but last time i was i talked with Gary and they more or less stated they wern't planning on crushing anything fior a long while.
