power_hungry Posted June 11, 2009 Report Posted June 11, 2009 This guy has 100+ old cars for sale, junkers, in west Michigan. looks like an old junkyard. There are some old Mopars, but a bit of everything from the '20s to '60s. He has a link in the add to see pics of most of them. http://grandrapids.craigslist.org/cto/1216745421.html Another ad in Grand Rapids Craislist has a 1954 New Yorker with a hemi for $3300. Quote
Young Ed Posted June 11, 2009 Report Posted June 11, 2009 http://webstermusic.com/CARS.htm that brings you to the site with all the pics Quote
RobertKB Posted June 11, 2009 Report Posted June 11, 2009 What a treasure trove of great and unusual spare parts as well as some OK project cars. Lots of interesting trucks too. I hope that he manages to sell a lot of stuff as I would hate to see what is left crushed. Most of it has been there a long time evidenced by the tree growth and would be difficult to remove. Thanks for posting. Quote
Reg Evans Posted June 11, 2009 Report Posted June 11, 2009 anyone care to guess at this one It's a P15 hood ornament attached to some kinda old post 1940 mopar truck.....or did you mean the tree in the foreground? Quote
BobT-47P15 Posted June 11, 2009 Report Posted June 11, 2009 Looks like an old Coca Cola delivery truck. Some good usable parts there...... Will be probably a lot that are not. I suspect the floors and bottom edges of body and doors may have been there too long. Quote
claybill Posted June 12, 2009 Report Posted June 12, 2009 where in western mich? near south haven? holland? any town listed? the email doesnt go thru.. bill Quote
Young Ed Posted June 12, 2009 Report Posted June 12, 2009 Reg the front looks funny beyond the p15 hood ornament. I dont see the start of the dodge name plate for the grill maybe a 39 grill with p15 ornament? Quote
power_hungry Posted June 12, 2009 Author Report Posted June 12, 2009 Did you try the email in the listing or reply for craigslist? webster@wmis.net is the email given in the text of the ad. I'd love to swing by and take look, but my project list is full with restoring my D-17, replacing the top end in a '87 Porsche 944s, and keeping my and my family's cars on the road. I think my better half would not be pleased if another project followed me home. My first car was a '39 chevy I got when I was in high school (1973), and it looks like there are 4 of them in this yard... Tempting. Quote
realgonekatt Posted June 12, 2009 Report Posted June 12, 2009 Reg the front looks funny beyond the p15 hood ornament. I dont see the start of the dodge name plate for the grill maybe a 39 grill with p15 ornament? I had a 47' dodge p/u with that same nose exept the hood ornament was a long ramhead in the same shape as our beloved p-15 ornaments. Wish I was closer to that stockpile, that t pickup is nails. With a few buddies you could lift out the cab anyway. Quote
knuckleharley Posted June 14, 2009 Report Posted June 14, 2009 I see several interesting project cars and trucks there,as well as a BUNCH of good parts. Didn't spot a 42 Dodge,though. My question is,"Even if you did spot something you just couldn't live without,how the hell would you ever get it out to where you could load it without spending a week chopping down trees,hauling off the trunks,and then moving a dozen or so cars to get to it?".
