Hi Glen! I’ve thought about you and the yard several times and the fun I had pulling there. I suggest every member who goes through the area, stop and see Glen, he’s definitely one of the coolest guys. Trucks or no trucks, grab him some burgers from Cozy Inn and talk to a really down to earth...
Trip report!
I think I went on the muddiest day of the year.
Glen had a good workaround of course.
I focused on two frames and pulled a couple of things I might need, brake shoes and I found almost all the frame CTIS air hoses.
The yard still has a lot, just not trucks, which I had last...
This is not a current pict of the yard, but I forgot to upload this for anyone drooling over lockers or wanted the original placard verbiage. I found this on the 15 or so USMC trucks that Glen had in the yard back in October.
Well, I'm still unpacking, but had a good time at Glen's. 2 days of pulling was cool. Mostly got flashers, failsafe's, a couple of light switches, a bunch of headlights and buckets. Someone nailed all the CTIS cab parts before I got there. Glen has a ton of trucks still, although I heard...

Glen has a ton of...
YIKES. I know the yard pretty good now, Glen and the boys are BUSY. That pile used to be just axles, now it's another pile of truck frames, and it's been regraded. I'm coming out soon.
Glenn, we just made it home. Thanks for the hospitality and the parts!
We spent about 6 hours in the lot on a very sunny and hot Kansas day. I never knew it was so much work pulling parts. Glenn still has some A2's with lots of goodies on them. And lots of other M923 A0 / A1's with good...
