Craigslist and Estate Sale finds!

Scored this about a year ago. As soon as it popped up I drove 2 hours to pick it up.

It is now stored under my bed. Too nice to have at the shop.
I'm thinking it ought to be put on the coffee table.

Brand new, don't think it had ever been out of the box.

Looks like a Trailquest tank. I have one of them in my Scrambler.
 
Scored this Slate Blue rear seat that was being used in a DJ5 Postal Jeep!

Not off road related, but at lunch we hit a Goodwill and I found a new Wheeler Engineering laser bore scope like new in a plastic case with instructions for $8.00, looks like they go for $80.00-$140.00 depending. Also found a Bearcat 180 handheld radio scanner and two racing radio corded headsets in a zippered case for $12.00. Online review of the product says people use these at race tracks to listen to races and the pit crews talk to the drivers? Looks like this set up new is around $300.00...so....thanks Goodwill!
 
Scored a free 31" BFG KO2 at work today. Truck got in a fender bender and there was a cut through the lugs about 1/3 of the way around the tire. Didn't get to the cord, it will make a good spare once I get going on Red.IMG_5312.jpg
 
Great scores today. got a Warn 8274 in real good shape, an 8274 mount plate, and a bunch of 3000-6000lb lifting slings. :woohoo:

The bracket will probably end up on the J20. The winch I might spiffy up forresale, judging by the interest in the other thread. The slings ar just good to have for tree savers, tugging stuff, ect...
 
I would be interested in the warn winch cover

The cover has received a lot of attention! However, it's about as stiff as a board and in sad shape. Cracked/tears and brittle. I'm going to try and work some magic on it, but I'm thinking it will fall apart once I start. I'll probably end up keeping it.
 
Ok. I sent you a message before I saw your post. Yeah been looking for one of those covers for awhile now. There very hard to find

Maybe you could send it to Kim and see if it would be worth making some reproductions. :shrug:

That's what I was going to say.

Tim Farley (who rarely comes here, but most of the regulars know him) had someone repop a Silver Anniversary tire cover. If Kim doesn't want to fool with it, I'd try Tim next.

They are hard to find, and I think they would sell if someone would make them.
 
Went to look at an old, cheap Forest Service J20 last night. She was pretty rough, but perfect grill, bumpers and some other stuff. Was about to pass when he said he has another bumper with an old winch on it. Needless to say she is coming home with me. Man is looking for the cover and remote now.

Just curious, what is special about the cover? Other than being old, I don't any difference in it and the new ones that are one the market. It looks the like the same design?

Everybody likes the old Warn gear logo. It's more period correct.
 
OK, makes sense if that is your thing being period correct. I modified my mine so long ago I have not worried about it but I do under stand the thought.
 
Bought this one this morning off the local classifieds. How are is a 1987 C/K1500 Silverado SWB 4x4? This rare!!! Yep, Unicorn level rare!!!!
