    Found a sweet old car junkyard! Nothin but 50s 60s and 70s.
    Ive only been to it twice so far and going again this monday to take pics but so far ive found 4 mavericks. two being 4 doors. Only one four door was all there but the otheres there are plenty of parts to pick at. One maverick still has the small bumpers on them, im takin those monday. I was wondering if anyone has anything they need or would want me to try to get for a cheap price? Let me know (y)

    Don't need any Maverick or Comet parts right now, but I could use some parts for my dad's 61 Ford Sunliner. Parts for a 61-62 2dr Hardtop Galaxie would work..... Particularly both doors, trunk lid... - Matt

    61-62 Galaxie Parts

    A Galaxie 500 would work fine. Just got to be 61-62. For doors a 2 door hardtop or convertible will work. If you could take some pics and get a price that would be cool.

    Thanks,
