I heard of them, too - maybe from this forum. I would be curious to see what their prices would be like. There is a place in Denton, TX that thinks all their stuff is solid gold...

I was at DV about 7 years ago and it's a great yard. They have lots and lots of cars from all eras and they're overall pretty reasonable. Of course it depends what you're buying. They're not a U-pull it and when I was there, I was told to walk around and take pictures of what I wanted, then they gave me prices and sent somebody out with me to pull the parts. They have a pretty decent operation.

looked into them last spring, 2 rear quarters, 1000 for both,plus shipping.Then if shipped to a business 10 percent off. That is what I heard, no one pulls parts off, they try to save every thing from the car, so they remove it themselves.

The place in Denton is C.T.C Auto Ranch (http://www.ctcautoranch.com/) and yes they're very proud and very pricey. Also, as mentioned above, you walk their yard, find a part, and they pull it.

Did I mention they're very pricey?!

50 bucks plus shipping for a simple cruise servo bracket. (Piece of rusted metal about 8"x2".)

For 50 I got it AND a good used servo plus other little stuff WITH shipping from a good member here!

Rob, I had a similar experience at the Auto Ranch, they're "high dollar" on everything.. I think prices start at $50, and go up from there

I've never bought from them, but have heard that their prices are exceedingly high. Been by the place and talked with them. A bit aloof, as I recall. They DO have a lot of era vehicles in there, though. Don't know specifically about Oldsmobile's.

I've been there before. They have a good collection of vintage GM cars (Olds, Poncho, Buicks, etc.) just depends on what you're looking for I suppose.

In my case, the 73-77 era cars, they have 20-50 cutlasses. Pre-73, they had quite a few as well, including Vista Cruisers.

I actually enjoyed walking around out there seeing the vintage cars and smiling to myself knowing I have a working piece of Olds history in my garage.

Hey Aron, they have a complete 72 crusier (needs a resto though). Scroll to the middle of this page and you'll see it. http://www.ctcautoranch.com/Cars/Car...ldsmobile.html

well it is getting harder to find parts, supply and demand. they know they can charge more cause parts aren't made anymore.There price wasn't to bad for my quarters 1000 for the pair, others wanted 1500 for the pair.Even found some for 800 for the pair. Also depends on the condition of what you are after.
