Taylorz1 Report post Posted October 9, 2023 Thanks to all who have posted and replied. PMs sent. A lot of these trucks are great looking rigs but again too new for what I’m looking for. Id really be interested in a pre 1986 truck/bronco/blazer. That chevy in globe looks like a project for sure but id rather look for something with a better body. In my limited experience even a roller with a straight body ends up being a better project than a runner needing a ton of body work or that had been pieced together over the years. Thanks and best zack 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CatfishKev Report post Posted October 10, 2023 Sounds crazy but I know a abandoned property with 2 80s Ford pickups just sitting there. I think one was to supply an engine to the other. Not sure how abandonment titles work but maybe?... I could get picks, will be out there again this week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Get permission from the property owner of record to remove them. Then leave them on you property for a while to meet the criteria. Then follow procedures for abandoned titles. Or Get the VINs and find the original owner of record. Get them to file for a lost title and then title them to you. Not Legal advice, just what I might would try if I were that interested.

Motor just got done, won’t be long. This is exactly what my dad did with each one of us kids growing up.... some of the best memories ever made. Looks like it is a manual transmission. Are you keeping it that way? And what motor ? So awesome you guys are doing this with your kids. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My ex boss bought a property that was once a landscape business. There were several abandoned trailers on the property. Wouldn't ya know it, the nicest trailer there turned out to be stolen. DMV will never issue any kind of title for a stolen vehicle. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes keeping it the long throw four speed, hopefully texting will be harder that way. Just turned the 351 into a 400 with small cam. Nothing crazy yet, easy swap later if he decides.

Sounds sweet and good move on the 4 speed tactic.... hopefully keep them safe from that distraction. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
