i grew up in Tonawanda and now live in North Chili (near Rochester). my favorite junkyards near you are:
Abeles on Chew Rd. right by Smokin' Joes in Sanborn - this one is on the indian reservation and has a lot of stuff. they're pretty reasonable with prices.
Skyway in Buffalo - really big lot kinda down by the old grain elevators. OK with prices depending on who's working.
M&M U pull it on William in Buffalo - this yard is smaller than the other 2 but prices are really cheap. also you have to pay $2 to get into the yard.
check out RodandPiston.com: Home if you want to know where cruise night and car shows are. it's a great local resource for the car enthusiast.

Re: anyone from wny?

Hey Johhny Boy!
I'm in Rural Chautauqua County. I wish we could get some of our "locals" in WNY to set up something like the NYthirdgen has. Maybe next summer a cruise in or something. I don't know of any good jy near by. Harmony Auto Parts, but they are a ship it in jy.

Re: anyone from wny?

Did anybody get together and start a WNY group? Maybe we can start off by attending a local cruise night somewhere. I am in Marilla near Elma and Alden. Thanks.

Every Wednesday night is cruise night at Lancaster Speedway (dunn tire park). You can show your car there and also race it against other people in the 1/8 mile drag strip. I think tonight is Camaro night since it rained last week. I see that August 26 is Camaro vs Mustang grudge match. I'm planning on going the 26th. http://www.rodandpiston.com/db/topic...=august,camaro
