Enjoy.

**too much stuff** · 11-28-2021, 11:02 PM

Computer overload i guess. Security token missing? Board won't let me post anymore.
I will try to post the rest tomorrow.

**Warrens69GMC** · 11-28-2021, 11:15 PM

Security token is file too large - one of the pictures is too big

**chev-obsession** · 11-28-2021, 11:20 PM

**too much stuff** · 11-28-2021, 11:32 PM

Tired of them yet???

**chev-obsession** · 11-28-2021, 11:31 PM

This is just a drop in the bucket from trucks that are in this particular yard. There’s another yard not too far away from this one that I didn’t take pics of that has a lot of “not for parts” trucks. Actually a couple yards that I’ve been to have not for parts trucks, I should have taken more. One of the yards I went to was REALLY cool. I got a rust free 72’ cab from it and now I’m kicking myself I didn’t get the doors from it too. There were other parts that I wanted to get like AC parts from a 66 cab. I called the guy 3 months later since it was a 2 hour drive, turns out they closed and crushed all of the rigs in that yard. Made me sick knowing there were good parts rigs in there.

The things you loose sleep over

**68bowtie** · 11-29-2021, 01:33 AM

Nice stash. It’s funny most people would look at that place and say “ew”. We all see it and say “OOOOOH!”

**Ol Blue K20** · 11-29-2021, 06:53 AM

Now I know what heaven looks like!!

**dagnabbitt** · 11-29-2021, 09:42 AM

An entire day there would not be enough. I wouldn't know where to start.

firedemon · 11-29-2021, 11:40 AM

is it bad that most of those look to be better than what i drive . im so jealous most of the yards here dont have anything more than ten years old . you might see a clapped out squarebody every five years or so

VWNate1 · 11-29-2021, 11:50 AM

THANK YOU ! .

Good to know it's not all gone yet, i hope these places are selling not just hoarding .

Never too much, never too many pictures .

dan42 · 11-29-2021, 12:28 PM

I sure love those junkyard pictures. When i was in High School ('75) there was an area full of junkyards not far from me. One was FULL of AD trucks. Another one had a running '57 Buick Roadmaster I could have bought for $75 but my dad nixed the idea. This was in Santa Paula, California, off Wells road I believe - they may still be there.

Memory jolt! I remember the old yards in Santa Paula and all the great early iron in them! I remember all kinds of stuff that was "cheap" I wish I had today. Sadly those yards are gone but there is a pick the part out there that has something old every now and then.

These pics are from 3 different yards. Everything was for sale and the few parts i bought were reasonable.

Sorry, wasn't doubting that he pics are actually from salvage yards, but these yards are way different than what i am used to in Texas where cars are practically jammed on top of each other in barren muddy yards. I would love to walk the yards in the photos.
