That's pretty interesting....it's nice to see that two of those beauties have some potential. The picture (IMO) is very sad :( .

hey, i wouldn't mind having that racer outside the fence myself! :chevy been looking for a shell to make into a racer, just seems like most sellers think their box of corvette parts are worth as much as the finished product!

Sad...but still, that's so cool to see guys rescuing these cars! I hope they keep the web site current, it'll be very cool to see how these projects turn out.
:cheers:

Very sad pics :( . I wouldn't mind getting my hands on that convertible with the fendor flares and rollcage either :rolleyes: .

I wouldn't mind getting my hands on any of them, they have to have good parts on them, you would have to be able to make a couple of complete vettes out of all of those parts cars.

I agree. I can just imagine all the parts in there that I could use. ESPECIALLY off that black 79 with the spoilers. I've wanted spoilers for some time now (ever since seeing Rhys' 78 Pace Car). Also, my tail lights are cracked. And at $50 a piece, I bet I could find a set in there that could be cleaned up for less.

It's just like that earlier post about donating parts to other Vette owners. I wish THEY would donate parts instead of letting them sit there and rot. It is a shame. :(

The GOOD thing is, two of them are saved. :cool:

The blue one is a vinyl covered hardtop convertible. Oh man, what tragedy. Oh well, they all can`t be saved. :U

corvettemaster

That's what I would call Corvette Hell :eek: :eek: :eek:
That is a sad pic, but I wouldn't mind having a few of them for parts. Lots of useful parts in there. Looks like mainly C3's, although I see what I think is a C4 hood? :confused: :confused:

Sir Tripower

For all of You, that haven't yet figuered out:

I've taken the pics out of the January issue of "Cars & Parts Corvette"-magazine. It shows "Elmer's Auto Parts" in Webster, New York. Look into that magazine for more pics and informations. There's a website from elmer's too:
http://www.elmersauto.com.

Probably there are some NY-guy amoung us (I could bet there are ...) who can make a visit at that salvage-yard and give us a reply what they have seen themselves?

Nasty greetings from Germany

How come "Car and Parts" ships to Germany before me? :mad I haven't got that issue yet! :mad I would be like a kid in a candy store if I went to that bone yard. Sad at first.. but my shopping cart would be full and I'd be smiling when I left :D :D :D

Warp70

That is sad, but it looks like there will be some happy endings :D :D :D

Silvr77 - This is gonna make you REAL MAD ... I live with 2 mikes of you and I got this issue of Cars & Parts Corvette about 2 weeks ago. I'd get in touch with them

Alwyn678

Wow that is so cool to see them rescued..What idiot put them there in the first place :mad :mad ..I want the yellow one!! :smash:

JohnS_77

Damn! Webster is only a few miles from here. I think Xracer works in Webster. Sunday is supposed to be a really nice day here. Perhaps we shall go on a field trip!

Edzred72

It would be real cool if you guys do go and take some close up pics for us!!! :cool: :cool:
