Good day today! My Dad tagged along and I brought my 8-year-old as well. Ran up to Belton, about 30 miles north of my house, and went both to the Belton Wrench-A-Part salvage yard and to the Winternationals Swap Meet.

We went to the salvage yard first. Misty broke one of the climate control knobs off the '01 Grand Prix, and as usual I had a long list of misc stuff for the wagon and Cutlass. Belton is unique in the fact that many of it's cars come out of the Fort Hood military base in Killeen, the next town over. You have to watch for rust, as soldiers come from all over the country and bring the cars with them. I've even see Alaska plates out in the yard.

Here's the salvage yard pics:

Check out this old Ford. TONS of parts in good shape. Engine and trans still in it. Great dash, great chrome. Hope it gets well parted before it's date with the crusher.

How about a 1980 Buick Century Fastback Turbo Coupe??? Had a perfect metal hood with Turbo bulge that I HOPE someone yanks for a Regal, also a super rare rear spoiler. I snagged a set a perfect seat chrome trim off this car for my Cutlass. Rare car!

Walking out there were two older guys stripping parts off the 50's Ford. Was really glad to see that. Would be a real shame for that to get crushed....Ford or not...

That Turbo Coupe hood was only $30 plus a $2 core charge. I'm kicking myself for not grabbing it. Think I could have Craigslisted it and made a profit. They used the same hood on the Regal T-types.
