Just went to the Atlanta area and went to several yards and saw some neat stuff. Since it is too cold to go to Pa and Maryland,guess I'll be hauling some of this stuff from Ga. until spring anyways. Good parts/project type cars
Here's some more.The '71 satellite is supposed to run and the '77 TA smokey and the bandit car is a very loaded car. As junky as the TA is, I'm going back after it. It's very cheap.
Man Ted, you make me jealous with all these yard trips you go on. I dont know why, but i am a big fan of a nice looking satellite. :Brow: I hope that TA is real cheap cuz its lookin rough.
Ted, I'm jealous, too!!! I'm lucky to find a day or two per month to go junkyarding. o No: You seem to do it all the time. Is this a business for you? What do you do with all the cars you bring back? All right I've been nosey enough. Thanks for your indulgence.
Most of the cars are $350.,including the TA and the Satellite. It's been so slow at work all year for me,I have been practically laid off. I really haven't gone anywhere most of the year,due to the ripoff high gas prices,but now that prices are back to normal. It feels good to fill the truck up with premium for about $30-$40, instead of $90-$130. I have been selling off excess assets(cars,parts) but still have a 7500 sq ft building filled up with stuff.
Dazz nize Junkman... I was up in Cartersville / Emerson area 10 years ago. The place is full of Gold like this... :beer
if the sattelite is only 350 $ id buy it as well and part it out ( if it's a bit decent though ) not much repo parts are available these cars so you could make a decent buck off it btw a friend of my has a 71 roadrunner 440 Greetz Lennard
Brian, There is a Satellite/Charger in a local yard here...only about 2-3 hrs west of you. Should be available for parts soon...1-2 weeks.
Brian, Just spoke to the yard manager....car is a 73 Charger....complete, 318-2bbl, base model....won't be available for parts until 1-10.
Hey George, I just checked your Junkyard Report. It looks like you haven't been to a junkyard since before Christmas!!! ou: Are you OK? Are you having withdrawals? Do you need medical attention? Intervention? :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Happy New Year :grin:
Well, I went back there this weekend and bought/hauled the '77 Trans Am Special Edition back. I'm lined up to buy a few more and should be going back up this weekend to get a '66 Electra convertible that was just hauled in. Got some more pics,too.
Some neat cars here,but most are more like parts cars. Previous pics are the '66 Electra I am going back to get. A rough '58 Century 2dr hardtop and a rough,whats left of a '65 Chevy II Nova 283 2dr hardtop which would actually make for a restorable car with a good parts car/s. Some others include a '59 Dodge Sierra wagon which is quite rare now, a 'really decent '76 Cutlass Supreme Brougham.
