In hopes of helping fellow tgo'ers find parts they want or need
Sorry for the link but I didnt feel like copy and pasting all those image links again
Pictures are of Speedway Auto Salvage next to Gateway Race Track in the ESL/Granite City area
Some nice interior in those pics if youve got a not so common interior

Is this junkyard these pics were taken in a u-pick it type place? I hate the jy's where you can't go in or pick parts yourself. I ask because I am in west central MO, and am SERIOUSLY considering going to the jy for my summer roadtrip. But only if I pick parts myself.

Sometimes I see a group of kids that pay the $1 and sneak in spray paint and use the tools they bring in to bust windshields and screw stuff up. I almost wanna say somethin to them every time I see them

Re: In here you will post pics of third gens at your local junk yards *lotsa pictures
It didnt have the 145 mph speedo.If it did I would have grabbed it for sure.It had a 115 mph.The gauges were still intact.It was a 5 speed car but of course the trans was already gone.I did take the tach since it had the higher reving 5500 redline.
----------
That might be true for you but for me just seeing a 3rd gen vert in that condition is really sad.Especially when vert parts are so hard to come by.I was just bummed that someone else got to it before me and took just about all the vert specific parts...

wow compared to the places in NJ those pics look like they belong on a showroom floor. here at the u pull it its free but the camaro lot is kinda sad. they are completly torn down. top to bottom. they would take what they wanted and break everything else so noone can get what they want. people had caught on and started buyin and sellin them on ebay. not to mention NJ is like the camaro capitol of the world.

Most of the time those cars dont even have anything but salvage titles so they can sell the cars to the junkyards

I cant stand the junkyards that ask what you are looking for and wont let you walk around.I always say im looking for misc interior trim but some places want to know exactly what parts you want.Those are the places I dont go back to.

Re: In here you will post pics of third gens at your local junk yards *lotsa pictures
Ahhh you're down that end ive been to a few up here, u-pull-it in morrisville (went back after not goin for a few years, 0 third gens and the yards half the size it was) Al's in Trevose which is good but not a u-pull it so prices can get steep and Yales in Feasterville and they're hit or miss but like you said not too many around that let you go it and pull stuff yourself... looks like i'll have to take a road trip to find some good parts or just stick w/ the classified board here

Actually Im in northeast philly.I go to u pull it in morrisville but not as much as I used to.There are alot of ebayers who go there looking for parts to sell cause the prices are so cheap.I know quite a few of them personally so you have to be very lucky to get anything good.They did however have a few 3rd gens recently.At any rate that is why I travel alot to other yards so I can have better luck.What part of Jersey are you from?I know of some u pull it yards throughout NJ.Where is yales?I never heard of it.Is it a u pull it yard?

Just went again today. They actually got a new one in same day but it started raining! I got the dash with 1 cracked speaker grill, RS emblems for the hell of it, crappy shift plate to chop for my megashifter, rear right seat bottom, and b pillar trim for someone I know
Also picked up a couple radios
Had to wire down all my tools with wd-40 when I got back. Wasnt very fun as I bring a big tool box packed to the top and a full ratchet set with me

The only one I go to is the one in WH since its the largest. However, I've been wanting to go to the Allentown one as I hear they have better cars. Hows the Thirdgen shopping there?

Allentown is the smallest of the 3 Harrys yards.I go to allentown about once a month.Out of the 3 Harrys locations I seem to have the best luck there.They usually only have a few fbody cars (3rd or 4th gens) but it appears that they dont get picked over too quickly or else I just go there at the right time.

I'm in northeast philly as well, actually far northeast (somerton 19116) yales is up bustleton/bridgetown towards st marys hospital, but i was at u-pull-it in morrisville last month and compared to what it was about 5yrs ago there was nothing there, you no longer have to pay to get in and the yard as half the size it used to be.

Re: In here you will post pics of third gens at your local junk yards *lotsa pictures
Any of you guys know of any yards on the other side of PA where you can pull your own parts? I haven't been able to find any near me that will let me in the yard. Found a couple with 3rdgen parts, but very limited selection. I'm about 2 hours east of Pittsburgh near Johnstown. With gas prices the way they are, I might as well buy stuff new or on Ebay if I have to drive the 4 hours it takes for me to get near Philly in a truck.
