SALVAGE YARD DIRECTORY

["PaddyCaddy ." <paddycaddy@xxxx>]

OK guys - here goes.

Being a masochist when it comes to my personal workload and perpetual 
projects, I've roped myself into another one and agreed to compile a state 
by state list of salvage yards that will eventually be available to any club 
member via the website and/or in the newsletter once it's "done." By "done" 
I mean that I'll be ready to present it to the Club by the end of the year. 
So we'll all have a good six weeks or so to contribute. I'm not sure 
I'll be babysitting it after that - so you'll need to contact me within that 
time frame. I'll include every listing I get - from or about any yard 
worldwide.

I've coordinated with the powers that be in the club to start compiling this 
list once the next newsletter is mailed out - which they predicted would be 
in about 3 weeks. There will be an ad in that newsletter with my address 
requesting input from everyone who cares to contribute. That way I can get 
all the input from online sources at the same time I get mail from people 
not on the internet.

SO PLEASE DO NOT START SENDING ME ANYTHING NOW. IT WILL BE DELETED TO KEEP 
THIS INBOX FROM FILLING UP.

I'll be setting up a special email address for this specific purpose, and 
will let you know soon what it is when to start submitting stuff to it.

The guidelines that me and the club brass have agreed to are as follows:

Only yards that have parts for any Mopar vehicles UP TO 1970 will be put 
onto the list.

Please DO NOT send me new reproduction parts dealers. Only places that have 
used parts and/or parts cars will be included. If someone wants to compile 
a separate list of, say, NOS suppliers or repro dealers - be my guest. I'm 
doing the SALVAGE list.

If you are submitting an entry, please include all the obvious contact 
information such as full name and address of the place (duh) as well as 
phone numbers, fax, email, website, and so on.

I might also be including a brief description of each yard - limited to one 
sentence or two - that will help potential buyers. But I WILL NOT be 
including any personal opinions about said establishments. I think after 
recent discussions on this listserver - that should be obvious !

For example, facts that can be helpful such as "does not pick or ship parts" 
or "has an abundance of late 50's DeSotos" will likely be included with a 
listing. But statements such as "that guy is my hero" or "they suck" will 
not be included.

Get it ?

If anyone has any questions - lemme know. I think that should give 
everyone good enough idea of what we are doing here to provide club members 
with a new resource. Just have your info ready to submit in a few weeks 
time.

We just had our first frost here in Virginia - so it's time I headed back to 
the yards myself now that the vast, endless squadrons of mosquitos are all 
dead !

Happy Pickin',

Sean.
