This looks like the salvage yard south of Lincoln, that I visited a couple of years ago. There is a lot of old Chevelles and El Camino's, most have been picked over for the good parts. They guys last name was Watts?

Yes Loren that looks like the place. The name is Johns Muscle Cars. He's been grabbing chevelles for a long time now. I think he's pulled all the good parts and sells them separately. I was going to run out there this afternoon, but it's a 3 hour round trip drive, so maybe next time.

The only problem I had was, he said he shipped me some defroster duct parts, and they never showed up, and I could never get a hold of him again? I was out $25 in the deal.

Loren, the web shows a phone number of 402-674-3147.  Did anyone answer that?

Or, maybe he's just another one of those rude Nebraska people (I can say that being from there...)!  laughing

Correction... I looked at the ad again, and this is not John's Muscle Cars in Wymore, NE as the ad says Kearney, NE, which is about 120 miles west of Lincoln on I80.  That's like the last outpost between central Nebraska and Wyoming for 5 or 6 hours...

Oh come on......North Platte is a big town. They even have gas and groceries...razz

If those 64-67 cars have solid dash boards, I should run down there this summer and get them all. They would sell fast up here.

Kearney, NE is where we bought the '66 wagon 6 years ago... about every 2nd house in that town has a non-running old car from the 50s or 60s sitting in the driveway.
