I haven't had much luck on the Ft. Worth side either. but it's been a couple of months so maybe they got more in.

There's not much to pick from in the D/FW area. They crush everything
that is more than a few years old and anything that is left is already stripped to the bone. There is still a lot of 67-72 stuff in some of the smaller town junkyards, but you need to go 50-100 miles out of the area to find it.

I've been out at most of the Ft Worth area yards off Mansfield Hwy and Elliot reeder within the last 2 weeks looking for parts for a 96 Corsica. There are a few 67-72's but they are picked pretty clean unless your looking for 6 lug stuff or frame parts. As said above your best bet would be checking the yards in the smaller counties outside the DFW metroplex.

ft worth has a few and grand prarie is a gold mine, they sell nos and remanufactured parts in multiple places. plus if you are in grand prarie stop by harry's hot rods and classic chevrolet (in arlington)

Don't wait your time,DFW area been picked over too many people in the area,you have to be in the yard when something worthwhile shows up, everything gets scavenged over pretty good down in BIG D

I live on the outside of the metroplex where the trucks are more common from being used as farm trucks.
