Another trip to Candyland with photos.

Lakota · Jul 10, 2007

I just got back from Candyland (John's Salvage Yard). I've got new photos of what I think you folks will be interested in. I even got one for Ms. Herself. It has rained so bad here that it looks like a jungle out there, and we had to stomp down the tall grass to take photos. We ran into a few snakes, but the biggest problem was the red, black and yellow garden spiders. They were big enough to attack and eat a large grasshopper. They had huge bodies and 6"-8" leg spans. Anyways, on with the show. Let me know if you're interested in any one of these and I'll get you more information and photos.

I've got a lot more, but everytime I try to post it tells me 'error on the page'. I'll try again later.

That flat-back sedan would make a great stock car body!

Yes I did see it. I'm suprised nobody has jumped on that one yet. That's a pretty popular body style.

Lakota · Jul 10, 2007

It's in a secluded lot where he keeps cars that guys are making payment on. Some one was paying on it and dropped out.

Gastrick · Jul 10, 2007

These hood sides look pretty inviting to me.

motomech · Jul 10, 2007

darn it that willys wagon has the head light bezel that i need just sitting loose on the front fender....i keep trying to grab it and i keep hitting my head on the screen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Someone should jump on that 41 pickup, can't beat that price, and they make great rods. Wouldn't the remains of the one in the picture below make a great trailer to tow behind a rod?

Oh yea, that would make a sweet trailer.

joehalford01 · Jul 11, 2007

once again, i'm glad that place is in texas and not ca, the pics are cool to look at anyways though, thanks lakota.

I called and talked to John this morning:

Gastrick:
$250 for the entire hood, plus about $75 for shipping to Pompano Beach.

28hotrod-A:
He can sell you the doors two different ways. Empty shells or complete with glass and internals.
$350 each with, or $250 each without, plus about $350/$250 shipping to Alb.

Now keep in mind that these prices include crating and palleting. He doesn't just wrap it in brown paper, toss it on a truck and wave bye-bye. Let me know what you want to do and I'll PM you his number, that way you only make one expensive long distant phone call.

motomech:
I don't see a headlight bezel laying loose on the fenders. A headlight bezel is the ring around headlight that holds it in the housing. I do see a headlamp mount bar laying loose on the fenders. If that's what you're referring to it's about $40 plus about $40 shipping to Mesa.

Note to everyone:
John has cars and parts that are tucked away from the public, he also has contacts with others like him. If you need something, ask me. The internet is a lot cheaper than many long distant phone calls.

its in this picture it looks like a head light bezel layin on the front fender....i could be wrong you have seen it in person but it looks like a bezel to me

ok thanks for lookin into the doors but a $1000 for all. a little steep.

garcias amigo for your time.
