Junk

Drove through Colorado on US 40 instead of just taking I-70. Turned out to be an excellent decision. Saw a junkyard and a bunch of old stuff, so I pulled over to check it out. Lots of old 50s stuff, and not just the usual Tri-Fives.

Wow, thats amazing!   Some of those bodies are in incredible shape from what I can tell!

[hotrodalex]

Yup I want to go back and get that Oldsmobile (the one above the '55-7 Buick)

Gold mine!

That's so awesome to have such "junkyards". Here something as romantic as that would be illegal because of the environment. 


What car is this? Looks like some sort of AMC or Oldsmobile Coupe from the late '60s or early '70s.

[Secret Chimp]

It's a Ford LTD/Galaxie fastback.


and I want that blue 50s Dodge wagon with the huge round tail lights.

[Madman]

I spotted one of those a few years ago.

I think you have to drain all the fluids in cars before they can just lie around in a junkyard.  So environmentally speaking, they're not that bad.

I believe he meant the 3rd one over...white vinyl top with pale green paint, goofy tail lights.  It looks familiar but I can't quite place it.

Beautiful car, but I meant the green one one next to it. Looks like an AMC or Oldsmobile...

That's also a requirement here, but we have these so-called "recycling centers" where cars are torn apart and all valuables are stripped and stored for potential customers. No such thing as a classic "nature junkyard" here anymore. Literally.

I suspect that it's a Ford as well...69 fairlane/galaxie sedan with the left tail light assembly removed.

[GoCougs]

Lots of Mopars in there. IMO the coolest car of the lot. Could be had with a dual quad hemi.

[hotrodalex]

I should say that I want the Oldsmobile due to the decently good condition it's in, not because I think think it's the coolest. All it needed was a little love, was still mostly complete and no rust.

Otherwise I'd take the blue wagon or one of the tailfinned cars.

[FoMoJo]

Good pickins' for MOPAR fans.

I love these old boats.  Very cushy inside.  Looks like a '56.

Looks yummy!

Junkyards always leave me with a bit of sadness.

My neighbor has that exact car.
