Junkyard finds - post yours

I found this treasure last week - Too bad the wrecking yard "can't sell a complete vehicle once it enters the yard"

Pre '80 Camper Special with 454...100% complete and restorable

dang!

seen it on the other forum, as I said buy it piece at a time, or at least the big block lol.

If I replied to this on another forum can I just copy/paste the same reply on here??

[Captkaos]

yeah, you can

i'm surprised the wrecking yard cannot sell the whole vehicle.  the salvage yard near me has a fenced area where they sell whole vehicles they acquire one way or the other.   Even if they don't have the title (which they should), one can be easily obtained.

I'd love that truck. Always wanted a single cab dooley...

Here's mine sitting in the junk yard the day i picked it up. 100% complete and originial untouched since new other than routine maintenance, no scratches ding or dents, 53,000 miles and one previous owner, just ran and drove poorly due to the carb and loose steering. It now hides safely in my garage after handing over $800.

     Junkyards tend to make more money off parts/scrap then whole vehicles.  I bet if you wanted it bad enough you can find someone there who has authority to sell whole vehicles, just depends on how much you are willing to spend.....

Man, why can't I come across great deals like this one?? Great find!

I had the front panel off this one....

This is fixable....a couple of fenders, front clip-- a little bondo here and there.  i bet you could get a good deal on that.

You may need to tug on the frame just a little bit, though

No way anyone walked away.
