Just wanted to pass on this article that I heard about the Junkyard in East Troy, Wisconsin. The gist is that it will be cleared out by winter time, 27 some acres of land covered in something like 4,000 cars. So they are trying to get rid of all these cars before they get crushed and are unusable. I just wanted to let everyone know because I seen a couple M-series trucks in the pictures and heard there might be more. Good luck everyone!

Here is an article about it;

That's a shame he was a nice old guy. That yard was really neat you could spend all day finding new things to look at. I'm glad the last time I was there I took lots of pictures.

Just drove by the yard a couple of days ago and the crusher has been doing its job. Sad to see this yard disappear.

I know the feeling. We had a yard near us that we bought a bunch of M35 parts from. He had probably 20 or so. Bought a bunch of new 900x20s on rims for $75 each. Called last year looking for some parts and he had crushed them all. I know one had a new motor in it, Truck was dated 1971 and motor had 1987 tag on it and looked spotless... All gone!!! :cry:
