Bookmarked!

Been trying forever to find a 71 rally hood for my Challenger.
Going to give them a call.

I like it. That has to be the most orderly wrecking yard I have ever seen. Look at the cars the way they are organized by model and then placed into neat double stacked rows. Sure makes it easy to go to the section with your model car in it and see if they have what you need. Seems my past experience with old car wrecking yards is that they didn't usually have much organization at all with the cars randomly strewn about the place. But that's what made them both aggravating and interesting - it would take some time to go through it but it also was like an adventure where you would have to search the whole yard to see what hidden gems might be there.

Man I would rather crawl around there than go to a nice car show!  Over there you never know what ancient treasures you'll find there, and more unique cars I would imagine!

Thanks for the pics!  :thumbsup:

And in what has to be a first, they even provide ladders so you can check out the cars on top! What wrecking yard provides ladders? That's pretty neat! :clapping:
