Oldsmobile parts in Washington State

I don't know if anybody else has seen this but I just received it from a friend of mine in Colorado. It is another chapter in the sad story of the jaws of the crusher.



I just received this message from Pat Yancey, OCA President. Get the
word out and don't let another load of parts get crushed before you
get what you need:

I just received a call from an OCA member who owns a wrecking yard.
He is losing his lease on the land and will have to liquidate his
entire
stock of Oldsmobile parts immediately. Mostly 60's and 70's stuff he
said.
But lots of starfires and good cars.

I think he said this place is north of Seattle, Washington but I'm
sure parts
can be shipped. If anyone needs parts, call him now. I sure hate to
see
these car parts crushed.

Contact John at 1-800-326-1922 or 1-425-485-0733
If John isn't available, you can talk to Jerry.

John's cell phone number is 1-425-478-8389

Are they going to be cool about prices?

When the yard by me was going to crush everything, they still wouldn't budge on parts prices. I told em they could crush their junk if they were going to be like that.
Still asking $200 for the fiberglass header panels a week before the crushings.
No steel value whatsoever to them, it blew my mind. Stubborn old goats.

When another yard nearby was closing down, those guys were awesome!!!
They let me have 6 Mercury flat heads for $250 AND loaded them. They were glad to see them saved.

No idea where they are going to be on pricing. It is probably a good thing they are in Washington and I am in Texas or I would wind up with a Starfire.
