there's a very similar matador in an all mopar junk yard around here-i always walk around it several times. lots of interesting features both in and out of those cars.
you never see them either.
cool pics.

those fins are wicked looking.

 

'60 Dodge Matador 2dht is a pretty valuable car, and that one doesn't even look that rusty considering how prone to rot they are. Someone on the Forwardlook site would restore that, or ship it to Sweden.

 

Interesting find, for sure!

 

not a bad yard some solid stuff, at least if u compare yards around me

 

looks like a interesting place

 

Sheee-it! I love them quirky old MoPars. Too bad I'm flat broke...

 

quirky old mopars?????? I had one of those in highschool. 6 years old and rusted near in half.

 

Would like the bumper guard on the old 55 Pontiac.

 

I bought the bumpers off of the 55 Pontiac. I will prob. list the guard on here to sell. I'll PM you when I get it all apart.

 

Never even heard of a Dodge Matador before today but I'm diggin' it! Nice pics.

 

I love walking through these old yards and looking at what was once someone's pride and joy. Wondering about all the living - laughing - loving - crying - dying that went on inside these cars so long ago. Did someone hear about Kennedy being shot on the radio in that old Matador? Did they weep at the wheel? Every one of those cars has a story, and sometimes you can find a clue or two if you look close enough.

That Matador is a beauty - too bad she's rotting away. I remember tons of cool looking Mopars around as a child - very distinct - but they sure disappeared quick.

Thanks for the pics.

The '55-'56 Imperial should have those funny valve covers with the plugs in the middle we all like.

 

Find out how much he wants for that Dodge Matador. I know someone will rescue that car. From the looks of it, it isn't too far gone. Are the floors really gone, 'cause the body looks real nice. Can you take some pictures of the interior and inside the trunk?

 

nice truck cabs but i just dont have the room for them right now

 

UHHHH OHHHHHH. I'd like the whole thing, entire yard! Only couple of problems--One is I don't have any money, two is I live tooooo far away! Thanks for the tour, the pics. Perley

 

That looks awesome man!

 

Stude-Sled, that blue Chrysler didn't look to have been outdoors for too many years. Lots of good parts. The side-trim config. doesn't seem routine. Is that a New Yorker? Happen to see if it has a Hemi in it? Thanks -- Jimi

 

No HEMIS left in the yard.

 

Stude-sled,
I'll be in Willard in a coupla weeks visiting family, how far from you is that yard? I'm figuring on hitting some yards while im there.

 

Ship the Matador to Sweden. Here´s a link to some pictures from one of Swedens top Mopar guys.
