    That would be a dream yard here in jersey. Anything that old in a yard here is rusted to the door handles. Its always cool to see they still exist somewhere. Thanks for the pics.
     
  4. Every now and then I'm reminded of yet another reason why I don't like MI- Are there many yards like that in Tejas?

    Yes we east coasters tear up when we see yards like that
    that kind of quality just doesn't survive here
    some of those look like you could air up the tires and go

    There is PLENTY of Gm, Ford , etc ..

    I prefer Mopars, tried not to only take those pics but...

    I asked him about a deck lid off a 65 Fury III ..now those are not even a "collectors" car .. at all $295.00 He must have 20 of them

    I just wanted it to cut the back panel off for a patch panel for my wagon

    That deck lid on the bay, might bring 50 bucks, I'll find another one

    The 64 wagon in the picture and its RUFF .. $2000.00


    He had me over the pickle barrel on a rust free door for my
    old dodge truck .. $300.00 and he stripped every last piece off of it
    Not that I needed those pieces but.. geeeez

    With the interstate right there, if he didn't have high prices, he wouldn't have all that tin.

    I have to go to Grand Prairie every 4 months for Army stuff for my work. So I finally stopped by it one day. Thats the place north of Ft Worth on the west side of I-35, right? Seems like nice people. I didnt find anything I needed, so I headed back home. Cool place though. Lots of nice tin there to be had!

    On a similar note:
    If you want a decent price and are trying to find a part you need, try calling Gene Hauff Auto here in Stillwater, OK. 405-372-1585. Not open on weekends anymore. He is a bit high on peices, but wanted to clear out the entire yard. Nice people. All you noobs posting in the wanted sections might try both of these places for those hard to find peices. If they are not busy, their both helpful. Gene told me he plans to sell it all and crush what doesnt sell someday. He doesnt know me other than by face, so I have no vested intrest other than Ill probably cry a little inside when he does sell.

    "That's no junkyard! That's my backyard and those are all my cars I am going to restore when I get around to it, now Go On! Get off my yard!":D

    Seriously that is a high on price but I am sure he just waits until he finds someone that needs it bad enough. Also, probably doesn't help to show a lot of interest.

    I also HATE when they pull all the little pieces off especially at a high price. Seriously, it's like "oh someone else may want these pieces too or maybe this guy will ask for them and I can squeze out a little more coin." Some people...
