hkestes41 Posted January 31, 2011 Report Posted January 31, 2011 Guys, For what it is worth, I pulled this off another site and am posting just as an FYI for anyone in the York, PA area. I know of a Junkyard in York, PA that bought a old abandoned junk yard about 6 years ago and now township wants the old junkyard gone and cleaned up. All these cars/trucks will be crushed starting the 1st week of March. I walked the yard myself twice. Most of the cars are from mid 1940's thru 1979. From what I have seen the cars are complete. All makes and models are in the junkyard. He built a garage and has 1 or 2 guys working there disassembling cars and trucks what ever you want. They have the heavy equipment there to pick up and put the cars/trucks you want on your trailer or rollback. I talked to him a few weeks ago and he is now trying to sell the cars just as scrap weight to try and save as many as he can. The prices were pretty high back a few years ago but now time has run out on him. The name of the junk yard is Baughmans Auto Parts. Phone# is (717) 846-3944 Mon-Sat. I imagine it will take about 2 months to crush everything once the crushing starts. He will save any cars you want if you come and spray paint your initials on them and put down payment on cars you want as he has told me. I plan on getting a few but can't save them all. Hope a lot of people come to the rescue of these old cars. Quote

PatS.... Posted February 1, 2011 Report Posted February 1, 2011 (edited) Won't be long and they'll all be gone...sad. Who died and left the tree huggers in charge??? They want everything recycled but they won't allow the yards the DO the recycling to exist anywhere. They like going to look at old cars but they don't stop to think how these machines are rebuilt or maintained. We can't even go back to horses because the tree huggers will b!tch about the poop spoiling the environment. Edited February 1, 2011 by PatS.... Quote
Skrambler Posted February 2, 2011 Report Posted February 2, 2011 They will have to do a bit of waiting before they can even get to those cars. Currently, everything is buried under a foot of snow and an inch of ice! Not the best weather to be pulling parts. Quote
