junkyardjeff Posted January 22, 2023 Posted January 22, 2023 All three were initially bought to be used for parts but the blue and black trucks were too nice to cut up,only the turquoise one donated parts to my future build.and later parts were used to put it back togather. After surviving from the 60s I could not take the two apart,they now are going to be displayed. I originally thought the black one came molded in black but found traces of turquoise so someone did a nice job of painting it,in the back ground is a 80s version to be built. 3
junkyardjeff Posted January 24, 2023 Author Posted January 24, 2023 It would have been a shame to the blue and black ones for parts and I would have put them back togather but after looking at them I could not do it,now the one with all the decals had a broken front suspension and the stock rims and hub caps still on the trees so I removed the back halves of the rims and the engine. The engine was missing the carbs so I picked up a fourth that was a severe glue bomb and broken front and rear suspensions so I grabbed the engine from it and returned the engine to it and found parts to fix the front suspension so it went back togather and it can live one.
junkyardjeff Posted January 25, 2023 Author Posted January 25, 2023 I would like to know who built them but have a feeling the people I got them from most likely clean out estates.
