Default AZ Junkyard trip today!

With apologies to Vintage Musclecar Eric...


Rick, his son Bryan and I went to a "well known" junkyard here in Peoria AZ to check out the cars. It cost $2 to get in...and it was fun (other than the 97 degree temps at 9:15am)

Here are some pics...cars for sale

GTO?





GS





Cutlass S

It's an accessory piece. Before electric trunk releases were available, this is what you bought over the counter.

That´s a vacuum opener isn´t it ? Usually operated by a similar cylinder under the dashboard.

Yes. That cylinder would be located inside the glove box, but this Chevelle has AC. Never did find it on thieve car, but I didn't look to hard.
