East TN Junkyard Candy

Answered a CL ad and this is what I found. There is a few good parts left, but most of it unfortunately am about 10-15 years late.

Too bad their so far gone. But on the bright side, it's still a goldmine of parts.

Re: East TN Junkyard Candy

Awesome pictures! Thanks for sharing! I love to see old yards like that. Before I found this site, while I was vacationing in TN I had stopped at a yard between Sevierville and Knoxville. Your pictures remind me so much of it. Unfortunately, I wasn't bright enough to take any pictures. But I did get windshield trim. I did have to trim a pine tree and jagger bushes growing over the truck to get it. Although a lot is gone, there still a lot of stuff left.

Not at all. You guys just need to be better detectives.
His name is Morris Mullins and he has several CL ads.
