Expert Adviser
I saw this on the AACA site. Someone close by might want to check on whats there.
"George Curboy's Auto Salvage in Sturbridge, Mass.(01566)
is closing the gates and will start crushing the remaining inventory after
over SEVENTY YEARS in business. Last chance to grab some parts or complete cars is this month as crushing will start this week (1/02/07). Owners have been friendly and you are allowed to pull your own parts...pricing has been very reasonable as well, my buddy has made 5 trips and has yet to reach the $500 mark,
of course he's also brought a dozen Dunkin Donuts each time too !
Yard at one time had 6000+ cars over 135! acres and even a Private Airstrip !
Inventory Consists of Primarily American makes from 1940'sthru 1960's with a few earlier and later and a little bit of foreign stuff as well.
99% of the cars are NOT canidates for restoration. Lots of Convertibles left
for parts as well as All makes of GM Mopar and Ford, it seemed to mee there were more than the usual percentage of Mustangs,Corvairs (incl wagons and vans)
and Studebakers. Also a smattering of other Orphans like Hudson and Kaiser
Phone nummber is 1-508-347-9650 and they are starting to crush so hurry up before it snows !"
