    Well the place isn't new but just thought I'd post it...Here's the website for a local junkyard that deals with nothing but minitrucks. They're called California Minitrucks Dismantlers. I've heard of them before in Minitruckin' magazine. Gonna have to make a trip out there real soon & check it out:waytogo:
