Alexander Posted July 15, 2009 Report Posted July 15, 2009 Hi folks, Anyone know of any salvage yards with in a 50 radius of Monroe NJ that has vintage cars. The few yards I checked have nothing older then 1990. Thanks, Alex Quote
jimainnj Posted July 15, 2009 Report Posted July 15, 2009 Alex there is a Freindship Yard on Rre 70 in the area of Hampton Lakes. Its East of 206 (red lion Circle) take 70 to New Rd turn right and follow a couple of miles the yard will be on your left. the cars are hard to get too and the old ones are not great, What year are you looking for, I went all thru it, check for ticks when your done, we had many on us.

JerseyHarold Posted July 15, 2009 Report Posted July 15, 2009 I live in Freehold and went to Blewett's in Farmingdale several years ago. They had a bunch of old stuff, neatly organized, but their prices were on the moon. While we're on the subject, does anyone know of any late-model U-Pull-It yards in NJ? I need some pieces for my everyday drivers. Harold Quote
JerseyHarold Posted July 15, 2009 Report Posted July 15, 2009 Shel, Thanks for the offer. I don't need anything drastic at this point. The highest item on my priority list, believe it or not, is a 14" plastic wheelcover for our '99 Contour, followed by a couple of P195-65-14 tires (hopefully on the correct rims) for the same car. We'll be in NYS soon and there is a u-pull off I-81 just south of Binghamton that I want to stop at if there's time. I've never seen any u-pulls in my area, and I'm beginning to think there aren't any around here. Quote
oldmopar Posted July 16, 2009 Report Posted July 16, 2009 Harold, going back about 5 or 6 years ago there was a junk yard off texas rd I use to go to. It was off texas road going east of 9 almost to matawan name was h&h or something like that. Not sure if he is still in business but a great place pull your own parts great prices . There also is or was a yard on texas rd out that way but this guy was a little past it you made a left turn and went down a dirt road he was at the end of it. As this was around 2003 it could be a housing development by now. Quote
JerseyHarold Posted July 16, 2009 Report Posted July 16, 2009 There is a yard on Texas Road that I was at recently, but it wasn't a self-service place. Also there is a salvage auction yard near by. I didn't know there was a yard off Texas Road. I'll have to check that out. Quote

Alexander Posted July 16, 2009 Author Report Posted July 16, 2009 Thanks guys- Jim, I found the one you speak of on the map. Just about at the interstection of New rd and Foxchase Hope make it out there this weekend. Harold- do you have a street or other name that this yards goes by. cant seem to find it on the map and or internet Thanks Alex Quote
jimainnj Posted July 16, 2009 Report Posted July 16, 2009 Alex I never found a phone # The yard goes back to the 1940's and I never found a listing, a friend took me there, my only regret was not taking off the hood brace on one of the 49 or 50 ply. I was looking for a 47 none there, I could have cut the the 50 down to size. thats my story and I'm sticking to it. Jim\ PS: If you or Harold want to go to a cruise on the 22nd at 6 PM Ocean county Mall (571 and Hooper) Vintage auto club, Vintage Muesum of Ocean Cty Quote
