Lots of Pasquats, including an original flat-face 1990 (still running a set of Fuldas) and two V6/manual transmission models (one of them a wagon). A Mazda3 with manual windows. An Acura RL with stupid stick-on fender vents. This was my first trip in a few months, and was surprised to see only one W126 left.

If it was nearby I might see what they’d sell what is left of this one for

That’s a clean junkyard. The one near my house just has greasy mud, rocks, and random shoe-destroying car parts.

$1 is worth the entry to just look around.

Agreed. It’s worth paying the extra dollar to go to this one ($2 entry fee), plus if you get there early enough they have lots of free donuts. In addition, they don’t bother charging for small stuff (tools, badges, shift knobs) even if you’re not buying anything else.

This is the $2 place over in IL. Free donuts make up for the extra buck.

Just saw your other comment about the $2 entry fee. Coño. That’s what I have to pay to look like an extra from the first scene of Monty Python And The Holy Grail , and they only have a porta-john if I need to squat. And they charge $20 to rent their beat-up hobo carts. I should move.

This place does have a nice interior, but yeah, porta-johns outside. At least they provide that nice gritty soap to clean up with after your excursions.

The carts they have are pretty heavy, but the don’t charge you use them. They appear to be made on site, and use space saver spares all around. It’s not like anyone wants to buy one of those, so this puts them to good use.

Soap? How bourgeois.

Yeah, it doesn’t look too bad all things considered.
