    John's is cool. A couple years back Fonzi paid me a visit and we hooked up with Slimegreeeen and son to make a run down to Johns.

    These are Fonzi's pics that I just stumbled on this morning, so the timing of this thread is impeccable...

    Johns would be the ticket....stacks and acres of Old cars...bring some rubber boots if it even looks like rain, and if you see a drivers side mirror for a 48 plymouth -yuh know what to do!!!

    Is Johns pretty good about letting you wander around the yard? I've lived in S Texas all my life but have never made it out there. Me & a buddy have talked about a "junkyard crawl" in the spring.
