Random parts I’ve dug out of my shed or my dads barn

[zachwabbit]

Figured I’d put these pics all in one place in case anyone else enjoys finding old dusty car parts, tools, or memorabilia

full set of original steelies off my B2 found in the PO’s garage

Super 90s retro chrome plated D44 radius arms

95% original Scout my dad found in a barn ..and then proceeded to squirrel it away in his barn

Actually stumbled upon this old BFG and 16.5” wheel half buried in the middle of nowhere in the Southern California desert while on my way out to a job site

’70s camper special 16.5” wider rear factory steelies

Honestly not even sure where most of this stuff came from. Some of its been sold off long ago, or ended up on friends project rigs, and some still occupies space in my shed for some reason lol

God i miss the old days. I know some of that stuff has fallen out of "fashion" but IMO the 70s-early 90s look of lifted trucks with the over zealous chrome, big rollbars with KC lights, etc, looked so much better then the monotone "murdered out" looks of today...

I know which one id rather own...

I don't need the chrome. But I like the 70's and 80's trucks much better than new ones. That Interstate lunch cooler is neat. I'd use that every day at work.

I wish BFG still made the old MT in a retro line or something.

They were cool looking tires.

I like chrome and the 70's and 80's style EXCEPT those trucks that look like a J.C. Whitney catalog threw up on them. Covered in crappy louvers, visors, hood scoops, and fender flares.

I would love to "find" a set of these 90's style rims for my little Nissan

And yet you don't like new trucks?

The superdutys always been the exception.

Except the grill is to large.

 

[Dirtman]

Lets make the grill as massive as possible, but lets block it off with a bunch of nonsense so no air gets through it!

I like chrome on other peoples vehicles... I don’t have to clean it. I stick to my easy to wash monotone paint job.

You of course mean primer?

its not primer, it is light grey flat paint. it is for the murdered out look in grey.

Oh come on, if you took a black and white picture of that truck it would become invisible!
