K&L Auto Wrecking has a lot of classic stuff but you can't walk the yard unescorted. It's run by some great people however. We've also got a couple of pick-a-part yards that you can wander (one each on the north and south sides of town) but their inventory changes frequently. They have an all truck side on the north end of town which makes it quick to check but you never know what they have until you get there. Southwest Auto wrecking also had quite a few classics but it has been a long time since I've been there. If you have some time, check all the yards (10-15, maybe more) on the north side of town (Lamb and I-15) and you'll find a lot of potential projects.......
