Longmont, CO junkyard
So here is where I met up with 53 Sparky the other day. Been coming here for a couple years now and there is a lot. The owner had to sell half the property to settle up with his deceased partners daughter and he had no choice but to scrap about 50 - 100 other cars/trucks he had here. He tried to keep the best ones.
Sorry for any duplications or crappy pics. |

Re: Longmont, CO junkyard
How does one go about finding this place?
Contact? Could use a GMC hood for 64 Maybe I am not allowed to ask these questions. Trying to get handle on what and how to do this forum. I belong to an old motorcycle forum and if u need a part...you ask for part...here you have to pay I guess.... Thanks |

Re: Longmont, CO junkyard
All of it is for sale guys, just the ones with titles he considers buildable he won't part out.
And yeah, he probably has as many GMCs as he does Chevys. |

Re: Longmont, CO junkyard
Yeah 72bowtiestepper, I've probably been there a hundred times and I still find things I didn't see before. While I was there yesterday, I got another wiper/washer knob (64 - 66 with the center hole and outer trim ring) a keyed glove box button and keyed passenger door handle.
Also found the brace for the drivers step fender that goes right below the spare tire cutout. Mine never had one. |

Re: Longmont, CO junkyard
Its a shame to see all that classic iron rotting away. Hopefully someone will get in there and save it. I'll get the word out here in Arizona to anyone looking for a project or 2.
