  • Found a huge junkyard.. close!

    I don't know how but this one slipped through. Jack is 75 and just now found out about it. We walked for 3 hours and did not see it all. I took 250 pictures. Found one aspire, one festiva LX unmolested (build date of 9,87!! OLD!), an MX-6, a charade, a P5, two yugos, a million pintos, mustang II's, mopar, 289, 440's, etc etc etc The guy has huge long dumpsters full of aluminum radiators, aluminum engines, copper wire, copper radiators! $$$$$$$ I will be posting pics of some of it in the photo gallery.

        Man it's so fun!. He doesn't advertise. He isn't a "real" junk yard. He recycles. But he does sell some parts and cars. I really don't know the deal yet. I will update after I have scored some parts and a whole car maybe. He is only open on saturday from 9 am to noon! If somebody wants to come just to walk the yard you are welcome to. It's so fun even if you don't buy anything. I will be trying to buy though this saturday.

          I sincerely hope he's not planning on crushing any of that vintage iron!
          Specifically, the 70 Stang, old Lincolns, Falcons, Bronco, etc..

          Around here, that '70 Fastback and '60s Bronco would bring between $6K to $7K (together) as they sit. I saw a '70 Fastback shell (just the shell w/no interior, drivetrain or front clip) sell for $3500 at a swap meet a couple weeks ago. The 60s to early 70s Broncos are just as pricey. And, if the're not rusty.........................I don't even want to think about it!

                    I just keep seeing dollar signs. I'm going to try to start selling out of that yard.
