ToonMan · 03-02-2005, 10:21 PM

Yes, it is quite the collection!!!!!

qksilver · 03-02-2005, 11:04 PM

Where?

ToonMan · 03-10-2005, 06:07 PM

It is in Arizona!!

Norselander · 03-14-2005, 07:56 PM

Nevermind that -- did you see that nice chainlink fencing?! That's a must-have item, that is.

Apache · 03-21-2005, 05:46 PM

Just a question, why does the picture have 1999 as the date if it was took last summer?

That would be a good find tho...2 cameos and a big glass fleetside.

ToonMan · 03-24-2005, 01:12 AM

I asked the same question. His Battery had died when he replaced it he forgot to set the date......He says!!

That looks like Casa Grande AZ. Around Cottenwood Ln & Trekel Rd. Matt

speedking · 05-28-2005, 05:05 AM

I'll be headin' out for Arizona now...Don,fuel up the car hauler-we're goin' huntin'...

72addict · 06-01-2005, 04:26 AM

I could use the trim off the box. both sides

ToonMan · 06-06-2005, 09:00 PM

Nice Find....Huh??!!!

ToonMan · 08-05-2005, 02:05 AM

Finds like these are few and far between!!!

72addict · 08-08-2005, 12:51 AM

ToonMan · 08-22-2005, 04:00 AM

Not yet!!!!!

ToonMan · 05-07-2011, 06:20 PM

Still Nothing

current photo of the area:

Wow, photo upload not working for me.....

tmoble · 05-07-2011, 06:33 PM

google maps, try correct spelling:

Cottonwood Ln n Trekell Rd. casa grande, Az

doesn't look like a wrecking yard area to me.

suburban neighborhood, complete with strip development. It's about 45 -50 miles from me and I have access to a car trailer. Don't think there's anything there though, otherwise I'd already be there making offers.

01spirit750 · 05-10-2011, 04:29 PM

How about this? Someone should call.

that's Deer Valley Auto. if you go there take the fat checkbook, you'll be needing it. Their main or original yard is about 6 miles due east of me.

Russell Ashley · 05-11-2011, 07:28 AM

Isn't it Desert Valley Auto Parts? If so you are correct about the fat checkbook. They wanted $750 plus shipping for a set of doors for a 69 Dodge truck.

tmoble · 05-11-2011, 06:12 PM

they're buying up everything in sight and sitting on it. They've got deep enough pockets to do that. They just estimate what stuff will cost in 10 or 15 years and price it like that now. If it takes 10 or 15 years to sell so what? not like it's going to rust into the ground, turn back into iron ore.

ToonMan · 05-12-2011, 01:26 AM

Aren't they the guys with the TV Show??

duwem · 05-12-2011, 01:29 PM

Is this that same place someone posted that has a whole pile of classic trucks for sale, they were asking like 4K for cabs and stuff?
