Isn't this the same place that they made the TV show about last year? Your prices on parts seem very reasonable but others in the past have reported sky high prices and poor customer service, I wonder if things have changed since there show is off the air......Tedd

It is they have 3 or 4 yards I went there 2 years ago and tried to buy a 69 charger that was a shell and needed a front clip no motor or trans they said 17k I almost choked the kid at the counter so I was cautious when I went yesterday but I really wanted the right parts after being diecieved on e bay so the price was more than reasonable and when I asked the mechanic pulling my parts yesterday he said everyone is new and the kids don't work there so Maby with the tv show and popularity up it won't be so bad the place is 30 min from my house and takes 2 hours to walk thru after yesterday I'd go back

Yeah, that is the same place. Sometimes you have to seriously bargain with places like that, and there are others around the country, to prevent being ripped off.

Talking about their TV show, would anyone here even want to consider buying one of the so called restorations they auctioned? I know I wouldn't. 100% Half A$$ed!
