I normally try to hit the Winston one, just cause i like it better than Charlotte. Even though Charlotte is closer to me.

Canoe.

I was out west for work recently.  For E36 M3s and giggles one afternoon, I paid my two bucks to wander around a u-pull-eet just south of Colorado Springs.

Today I went to the two that are in Winston Salem

Got a couple small things, nothing special

But did see some near stuff.

109 has half a dozen MGs and Trimphs etc

As well as a pair of 924 P-cars

I used to go to the 109 u pull it 25 years ago when they had a number of s30 z cars.  Are all the cars still sitting in the mud or have they improved it?

If you go back there before coming down here Sunday want to grab me a full complement of Smith's gauges from the M.G.'s?

The thought definitely crossed my mind! I would happily cut a hole in that Lotus hood for a blower.

Unfortunately, not a lot of zen in the 'yard today.  However the drive down and back was just about perfect.  If the temp was maybe 5 degrees less and the roads a smidge more curvy that would have been it.

Anyways, onto what I found:

 

 

Always amazes me that they just snag any wheels and weld 'em together for their stands.

 

 

And what I came here for.  Interior was picked over, unfortunately and that's what I was looking for.

 

No huge amounts of damage along the way, but some of the trees impressed me with what they were

Lotta power and light guys out.  This gas station was closed, unfortunately

Made my own trip to the junkyard today, mainly to check out this 97 T-Bird Limited Edition.

There's nothing terribly special about an LE--it mainly means special floormats, that silver stripe on the side/bumpers, and these badges, which I snagged to sell.

Also took its cupholders, which usually sell. Hoping those items combine help pay for this 17" aluminum spare from an 08 Mustang GT, which I'll use on my hub-swapped Supercoupe, or maybe my Mark VIII when I hub swap that.

Speaking of Mustangs...I have a lot of questions about what's going on with the rear suspension on this one. Yes, that appears to be expanding foam.

Saw this in the parking lot as I was leaving. Looks legit.

Your yard is open on Thanksgiving?  I thought about hitting the sale this weekend but I really don't need anything.

I apologize, it was taken on Wednesday

There are sales, but I looked at the forecast and Wednesday was a PERFECT day as far as weather goes, so I went then. I'll pay the few bucks extra.

I can hear the rain pouring down as I type this.
Also, Im sick now.

I lived in a 1969 Wagoneer for a year. Thought about putting a Westfalia poptop on it.
