JUNKYARD SHOPPING

I've been doing a lot of junk yard shopping in Elroy, TX, just south of Austin. On Saturday 11/20/99, I took my camera to capture the remaining memories of the 12 or 13 or so Mavericks/Comets which will be crushed in addition to his other 3000 plus cars. Incidentally, there was a film crew there filming a scene in a movie entitled "Jet Burst". (Movie is coming out in April 2000.)


Below are some of my bigger purchases:

LETS GO JUNKYARD SHOPPING!



There's got to be a Maverick or a Comet around here.




Here's one!


This is the other end of the rear clip.(ABOVE)


Seems like they stack cars a lot on Mavericks and Comets


Well at least this one is on top!


I think it's time to mow!


Yes, my daughter is pointing to a Green 1972 Maverick


Remember the olive green interiors? I got a perfect dash pad off of this one.


Have you ever seen a Maverick or Comet Speedometer with both Miles Per Hour and Kilometers Per Hour? I was going to buy it, but the yard worker messed it up!


MORE PICTURES COMING SOON--I've been out there 2 more times since, with tools and a camera!
