Whoever put that mid 80's Monte Carlo SS in there NEEDS to be SPANKED!! I've always wanted one of those! Hate to see one end up like that! ...Joe

That's the 5th monte I have seen in that yard in the last 6 years. They had an aerocoupe when I first went there.

That is such a shame. They are such a great looking car. Why would anybody in their right mind want to scrap one of them? If I had the room I'd rescue one of them, although my wife reminds me that i can't rescue and adopt them all! ...Joe

So many good parts left out there waiting for somebody to come along and take them home! That '66 door IS in great shape! Hard to find one like that now. Bet somebody on this board could use it! ...Joe

Any chance you would find out what they want for the 60's c60 grill? I wouls love to put that on my 66

JimmyFloyd 06-28-2010 02:53 PM

Re: Junkyarding
 
I can find out. How do you get it off? I'm guessing it'll be around $75-150 depending on
what they value it as. They might charge differently since it's in the Big Trucks section.

ob1monkey 06-28-2010 06:34 PM

Re: Junkyarding
 
should be three bolt each side inside the fender well. at least on a c10.

Re: Junkyarding
 
I'm in need of a set of seat belts for a 66, if u could check to see if any of those 64-66 trucks have a set it would be most appreciated.

Thanks.
Scott

Re: Junkyarding
 
I think they do, I will check this week.

Those are awesome pics man. Thanks for sharing.

There are a few cars in there that look like they are still in pretty good shape. Funny how one persons trash is another persons treasure. The car market has influenced a lot of it too. Some cars it's easy to find parts for cheap, and others it is not. So to some it's cheaper to scrap it then to fix it. It's a shame, but works out good for the few that go there looking for parts.

I got the Grill Home. Will PM you about it

I got the Cab Lights, fireman style. There is a For Sale ad in 67-72 trucks for them.

I noticed the door on the 60's C50 has some bondo by the mirror area, but the underside is really clean. I can get it for $75 plus shipping, but got to let me know today or tomorrow.

Should i grab the tow hooks from the fire truck and the wrecker? There are a couple other style tow hooks from those large trucks there too.

I saw a DRW Dana 60 axle, rear tow hook (rare), other nice pieces... thanks for sharing..

any of those C-50 trucks have a vacuum gauge dash? pull them if so.

Re: Junkyarding
 
Keep an eye out for a 67-80 C-50 style school bus... I want the gauges and little gauge panel they go in!

I love the scrapyard too much...

I recently pulled a hydroboost from a diesel truck. My truck has power brakes already. I'm not sure it would be wise to put it on the Camaro.

Last week I snagged a core support. Mine's repairable.

These are just the latest examples, and both were in full sun at over 100F.

JimmyFloyd 07-08-2010 04:17 PM

Re: Junkyarding
 
Yeah, there are a bunch of hydroboost setups here, just don't know if they are worth picking up.

Just took in a 78 Big 10 shortbed here recently.

I love junkyards!! but seeing all that vintage iron sitting there and waiting to be crushed and turned into some foreign POS car makes me mad...
