Back in the 80's there used to be a couple of junk yards that were full of old Chevys. In one I saw a nice, '56 2dr hardtop be brought in one day. The body on the car was flawless. The next week I was back in the same yard, and they had set another car on it and made a mess out of the top.
When the yard was sold, I'm told, they had someone from another yard that came in and bought all of the really old, collectible stuff instead of having it crushed.
Those cars fared better than the ones in another yard I knew of. There was nothing in that yard newer than two 60's Corvairs. I remember several 40 Ford Coupes, a 55 210 Handyman wagon that was bumper to bumper complete and in good shape, as well as a '57 Chevy 4 door, hardtop (ie-no post), something you don't see many of. The last couple of times I went by the yard, the gate was locked, so I wasn't able to get in. I found out a year or so later that the old man that owned the place had passed away, and his brother had a crusher come in and get rid of EVERYTHING. Now that made me SICK.
