Buzz 502 #1 Posted December 18, 2013 My daughter Toni and her boyfriend Craig work at Giordano's Recycling in Vineland. She works in the scale house and he runs part of the yard. I stopped over to visit her at work today and Craig walked over with this: http://www.tractorsupply.com/en/store/tractor-supply-coreg%3B-midsize-single-lid-tread-aluminum-crossover-truck-box-silver?cm_vc=-10005 A guy had just scrapped it. I'm going to mount it on the tongue of my trailer to carry the hitch, jack, tie downs, and everything else. He said he will talk the owners into giving it to him or paying less than scrap value. Early Christmas present. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JimD 3,347 #2 Posted December 18, 2013 That's a dandy early Christmas present Buzz. Might wanna upgrade that boyfriend to "Son-in-Law" someday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nylyon-(Admin) 8,025 #3 Posted December 18, 2013 Nice, I've wanted one of those for a while myself! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebo-(Moderator) 8,541 #4 Posted December 18, 2013 I was able to get one of those with the purchase of my new/used truck and it is great for keeping my work tools/supplies. I think it looks really good on there too. Nice pick up for you !! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Buzz 502 #5 Posted December 18, 2013 Nice, I've wanted one of those for a while myself! Check the scrap yards. You'd be surprised what people scrap. This is in perfect shape except for a dent in the back where they threw it off the truck. That can be hammered out easy enough. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Buzz 502 #6 Posted December 18, 2013 That's a dandy early Christmas present Buzz. Might wanna upgrade that boyfriend to "Son-in-Law" someday. She could do a lot worse. As a matter of fact she has a couple of times. I think they call that the Mother Teresa complex, bring home the losers and lepers and try to heal them. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
