    Toured an old timey yard in Safford a few days ago. Mostly crushed out, but they had trailers and busloads of loose parts. 30 or so old cars they had saved, including two 61-62 Cadillacs, three late sixties full size Pontiacs, a pair of '70 Impalas, and a '72 skylark tub with good doors. Nothing else, just the tub with doors, basic two door bench seat, column shift, with A/C car. Most of interior was still in tub, but heavily weathered. Yard name is Valley Auto, on Reay St, actually in Thatcher. Gessing? they might? take $500 to $1000 for it but not absolutely sure. When getting prices for loose parts they had, they seemed to be all over the map. They may be sitting on a fairly large wad of cash from the crush, so only marking time, until they close and sell the land. PS I do have three pics of the tub.

    I dealt with that yard a lot in the past,to get rust-free body parts. I was connected with a truck driver that literally drive right by there on his routes,and would bring stuff back for me. He eventually retired,so that was it.
    I would be curious to know how much for the body tub,but I would also need a way to get it to Pennsylvania.

    It really looked like they had crushed out in the last 2 - 5 years. The empty fields behind the office didn't have a lot of new plant growth, and a few wheel stands and miscellaneous piles of non car junk were scattered here and there.
