[FC] parts

[Ben Stiles]

With this yard, it is hard to say.  I have no immediate need to return, and
it is a 2 hour drive.

They do not move very fast at crushing out the vehicles, especially if they
see folks are stripping them.  These FCs could be there a year from now, and
I do not know how long they were there before this trip.  Another
interesting thing these trucks had were original short triangle mirror
brackets.

Why do you ask?

Ben
