This Saturday I spent part of the day touring the local junk yards.
First I had to go get a plate off one of my yard cars that was
sent to the crusher. The tow truck driver did not remove the back
plate and leave it at my door. I got to the junk yard about 5 minutes
before the car went into the crusher. My wife is happy about one less
non running car. She beat me home on Friday and I had not told her
I was getting rid of the car, she called me to tell me that someone
had stolen my car!
I also was at East Brunswick Foreign Car, on Harts Lane in East Brunswick
NJ. They have quite a selection of British cars. Most are rusting into
the ground but some of them are salvageable. I saw several RB Midgets,
70/71 RWA Midget with a split rear bumper, a Rolls Royce, an E-type
coupe, a BMW 600, an Austin England 105 (which the dash boards was almost
completely rusted away), a Cessna w/o wings, some TR7, TR3, and other
stuff. If you are in the area might be of interest but don't travel
too far. Watch out for the junk yard dog pen!
