Default Junk Yard Finds

So I was out at the local yard recently and was wondering around looking for a matching passenger seat for my dakota.

Didnt find one, but I did find these.... I though they were cool. Nice solid metal and in good shape.





Anyone else have any neat junk yard finds in all your digging???

Nice. Are you going to install them? My best junkyard find that I wasn't looking for was the skid plates.

I am going to try to use the adventurer ones. I didnt even know that was a dodge package. I came across alot of those on 70's model rams. I could get alot of different old dodge emblems from out there if anyone wants anything. The "cursive" dodge ones came off a dodge camper. There are more of those out there too.

I got new black SLT ones for the back corners of the cab too. The ones off the dakota just say SLT, but I got some off a ram that say Lariat SLT... just to confuse people!

Do you have an adventurer? Any of the dodge emblems would look great on your truck. I was thinking about doing this aswell. the D O D G E emblem is so nice!!!

No. The adventurer was a package in the 70's model rams. Was on the sides of the box by the tail lights and the D O D G E was off the hood of the same truck. Not sure what made an Adventurer, but they all seemed to be single cab, reg boxes, 4 wheel drive.

They are in great shape the way they are, but with a little polish would be good as new.

Like I said... Many more where these came from if others want them.
