Exploring Mopar Salvage Yard Treasures - Again! | 1965 Dodge Coronet 500

I was needing a few parts so I made a trip to Clay and Sons Mopar Salvage yard. I was able to score a few good parts but will always need a few more.
I seemed to bring home more wood ticks than parts, but that's another story.

*Heaven!* That junkyard is the nearest thing to it for an old Mopar guy, at least... Thanks for taking us along again, Chuck. This is wonderful content for your channel. Very easy for a viewer to immerse ourselves in for a little bit, so thanks! - Ed on the Ridge

You're welcome Ed, glad that you enjoyed it. I'm still itching from the ticks, I'll have to wait for a freeze before I go back again.

[@edpursell3880]

Thanks for going back and giving us another look around. I called them this week looking for a glass hood for my 65 and got a very nice lady to answer my questions. That Barracuda in the back of the shop looked very interesting.

[@Chuck_House_of_Mopar]

There's a lot of interesting stuff at this place and everyone is really friendly.

[@kurtpoblenz2741]

What an awesome place. I could get lost for a couple days , walking around !

[@Chuck_House_of_Mopar]

Agreed.

[@truthweallknow]

I always love Mopar junk yards you never know what you'll find there

[@Chuck_House_of_Mopar]

This is true and Clay has a bunch of these early B bodies.

[@orlenbrown4293]

Always make ya a list to take along. If I don't I'm guaranteed to grab what I don't need and forget what I do!!

[@Chuck_House_of_Mopar]

Oh, I had a list. I still forget stuff.

70 bucks! You can’t go wrong! The valve covers alone sell for a minimum of 100 bucks and you’re set looks mint!

[@Chuck_House_of_Mopar]

Yeah I know, I did well. The valve covers look to be in really nice shape.

Imperials, C bodies, trucks...I could spend a few days at that place just looking

[@Chuck_House_of_Mopar]

Yeah, I know. It's great.

[@maximuswedgie5149]

Score! Lots of window trim available it looks like, I didn’t know that 64 and 65 were interchangeable, I thought I saw a grill in the engine compartment of your first 65 you looked at up there. I’ve always thought it was cool that some of the guys do the inner headlight delete by cutting the grill of another and splicing them together somehow. I think you need 2 grills to do that mod.? Makes the car look wider I think. Anyways, great video Chuck keep ‘em coming.

[@Chuck_House_of_Mopar]

Thanks Max, yes that's how they did it for those Hemi cars. Weight savings and every little bit counts.

[@robertheinkel6225]

Dad had a half ton pickup on the farm, that we used to load 2,000 pounds of grain and corn in the bed. We would drive it to town to have it ground into feed. Getting that weight moving with a six cylinder engine, granny gear was required. Leaving town, it was all uphill, so you never got not high gear until a mile later.

[@Chuck_House_of_Mopar]

Dang Bob, that was quite a load for that little truck.

[@knoester7714]

That blue 🔵 forward look car is a 1955 Chrysler New Yorker maybe a deluxe and yes I could use some parts off of it

[@Chuck_House_of_Mopar]

Clayton's contact info is in the video description. Good luck.

[@Chuck_House_of_Mopar]

It’s best to send Clayton a text

[@knoester7714]

The silver car with the stainless across the roof is a 1959 or a1960 Imperial

[@Chuck_House_of_Mopar]

Thanks for the info, I'm not too knowledgeable on the Forward Look cars .

[@shaunclifton5281]

Remind me, I get sidetracked on Mopar hunts. That 72 Roadrunner with scarce options is fairly rusty...right ?

[@Chuck_House_of_Mopar]

I don't think that it's very rusty but it apparently is very SPENDY. It's a consignment car I believe.

@Chuck_House_of_Mopar does he have any late 40's trucks?

[@Chuck_House_of_Mopar]

@@edlattina2638 I don't think so, in fact those are probably the only trucks that he has. They were all bought from just one person.
