Saw this thread on Team Chevelle about Charley's auto wrecking.
There's a phone number in the thread about the 8th post.

Hurry!!!

The outrageous price of scrap now is making a lot of the old yards pack it in, the money is insane. A friend of mine is cleaning out 30 years worth of old cars at his facility, he is getting $4000 a tractor trailer flatbed load, they are doing 3 loads a day, 15 loads a week for a month ( he has a lot of cars)do the math. They show up with thier own on site crusher, payloaders etc and all he does is walk around the yard with a can of orange spray paint. His philosophy, I have 22 1960 T-Birds, I'll keep 5 and crush 17, easy money and you still have inventory

Hello, He has a respritory problem with no insurance. No crushers yet they are post poned a few days. He is opening on Saturday also. Been there for three days (not today) and alot of nice parts have been sold at real good prices. There are some very solid bodies. Pretty much all locals picking up parts and some filling orders. Took today off but I'm going again tomorrow. Larry
