Back in the early 80's most of the small towns around here still had city dumps. People use to just drag old cars out there. You could just drag them back to town if you wanted one, Government/State killed that.
clear at the back of ours, there were some really old ones stacked. I found an old Stutz under a big pile when I was a kid. Crawled in and got one of the hub caps off, (still have it somewhere). One time we found a pretty nice model A p.u., took it apart piece by piece and brought it back to town in multiple red wagons.
Started to put it back together and lost interest. My friends dad got mad it was taking up shed space and took it back out to the dump (and scattered it)
Here is two more old yards in my area.
1- Buds Salvage, Aline Ok.
2- Stapelton Salvage, Dodge City Ks.
