Wow funny I never see more than 6 guest viewing just checked after the previous post and there are 19  :headbang: Let's see if they have the balls to join.
considering what time you posted it and the fact that is was Sunday i would guess it would last a bit longer than if you posted it throughout the week during business hours  :13:.

depend on what the working stuff is. sometimes i will just give the working stuff away for free. let some other hoarder take it or use it.

you should see all the bicycle parts in my back yard. i need to start fixing them up so that when spring comes around i can sell them. i think i made $200 last spring selling bikes. $80 of that came from bikes i had just pull out of the trash and put air in the tires.

ya. i also like how the rad actually fits properly in the 91's rad support. before the rad was held in with 2 nuts and bolts and was partially blocked by the rad support. now it is held in by 3 bolts and the nut things that are incorporated into the rad support. should be running a bit cooler with all that extra air blowing through it.

i have to agree. i keep as much as i can but once i start trippen over it i start getting pissed and try cleaning up. i am currently getting rid of some 2x4's that were taking up about 3 feet of driveway space and were 4ft long. i also put the 2 plastic tool boxes that were sitting in my driveway in the back of my truck. made about 5-6ft of room  but with the way things are the back of my truck could cover a couple feet of crap.

got most of the stuff done before it started to rain. just have to tighten a few nuts and bolts and put the grille on and it will be done.
heres a pic of the old rad support. i am not sure if i could have fixed it after i more thoroughly looked at it.

them damn leaves kept getting into my freshly painted parts so i had to move the parts i could to where there was not as many leaves :angry5:. i think por15 has stuff that kills rust and is thick enough to fill holes but i was in a rush and did not have enough time to get some. i just got some used tremclad rust paint. it was not super expensive but it was not the cheapest i could find. i can always sandblast the paint off at a later date. paint blasts off a lot easier than rust.
i do got to say i am done working on the truck for the night

ok. kind of back one topic. it has turned out to be a fairly beautiful day. managed to get the old rad support out without too much trouble. ended up doing some sand on some very rusty parts and blew some tiny hole in the metal  :crybaby2:. i figure at least i am getting rid of the major rust that was there. i have been filling in some of the tiny holes with paint :laughing7:. at least the stuff that has rust is just mainly cosmetic. no weight is really put out it. now onto the pictures
it looked real mean with no grille so i just had to take a pic

rust. lot and lots of rust

more rust

starting to paint. you can see some of the holes i made

thats it for now. back to work i go

hopefully you find what you need. i know it will probably be a pain in the but if you have to remove them yourself but will be worth it.

i think it will look a lot better once you get it out in the sunlight.

i don't mind getting off topic. i always seem to jump into the v6 to v8 swap since i have been through it once. the brackets you have on your current engine look like they would bolt to a magnum engine. maybe one day we will have a thread dedicated to v6 to v8 swaps.
this is a picture of a v8 magnum. you can see the newer magnum mounts which is the 3 holes and the older LA engine motor mount ears. there is one one each side of the number 6

but if you think of it the ears on the v8 are on the front of the engine so if you cut 2 cylinders off the ears would have to have to moved back or the v6 would be sitting fairly far ahead.

i think dakota and newer trucks just used different motor mounts out of the box. maybe since your trucks were 4x4 they did not have one. maybe it was a 2wd only thing

I could also not get them to work. they seemed too small to be a real video.
