Odd Yard Pics

[HOT ROD HORROR]

Here are some interesting pics from the yard. How often do you see a yard like this anymore, very few are left that haven`t been shut down by the city or state.

Nice stuff. There used to be that salvage yard on the west side of 99 North of Madera that had a bunch of old cars. But that was 15 years ago.

Auto Wrecking yard

Nice stuff. There used to be that salvage yard on the west side of 99 North of Madera that had a bunch of old cars. But that was 15 years ago.

That sounds like 3 Boys Auto Wrecking. It is a pick-a-part or pick & pull now, one of those names.

Kool stuff! Looks like that T behind the barn was once a hotrod. Wish there was a place like that around here, I could spend hours in a yard like that.

Yes, that's it. I used to go there all the time and get body panels and stuff.

The thing I noticed about that T was it had airplane tires on the rear. Thought that was an interesting choice of rubber.

Yes the yard is still open and selling at least for a few more months , after that I am not sure. It may be closing up.

That hurts to see some of that

I wonder how much a yard like that would sell for.

My thinking: we have 3155 members at RRR. If each member chipped in $100 we would have $315,500. If that amount were enough to buy the whole lot, each member could claim $100 worth of parts. Any purchases by a member would be based on current market sale price. Excess $ would have to go to taxes, insurance, upkeep, etc.

It would most likely end up causing hard feelings amongst members here, but dare to dream...

there was a yard in somerset,pa that had all 20-40's stuff the auctioned all of it off a few months back

I know of two yards near me that are still loaded with old tin. One of em has nothing newer than 1946. (something to do with WWII, owner didnt want to give the gov't his cars) The other had its haydays in the fifties, then trickled off through the sixties. Soo much old tin, soo little cash. Both yards are heavin.

Couple other yards around with some old tin, but nothing to write home about yet. The search continues.
