Re: Purkey’s Auto Salvage outside of Coffeyville Kansas



When I later went on Purdey's website, all they had were late model used cars. Nothing about Classic cars. Gives me concern.

I also did a Google Earth lookup, that's how I know I drove right past the place. I hope there's something there when I do make my next trip.
Another couple of yards I've seen and expect to possibly revisit:

Doug's 4-Wheelers,  1211 Hwy 163 Pella,  Iowa. 641 628 2755

Wagoner & Sons Inc, Colby Wrecking Yard, (East of) Colby Kansas. 785 462 7521 The address is given as 200 Nth Taft Avenue, but it's right on Hwy 24.

I did a Google maps lookup for it. There is a Purkey's Used Cars at 4533 1200th Road, Coffeyville, KS 67337. Phone is 620-251-5200. Says it's open and closes today at 6 PM. 

See a lot of cars visible in aerial that says 2022, for what that's worth.

By the way, it's 'Coffeyville', not 'Coffeeville'.

This is just the sort of thing I need to know about for my next trip to the USA!

And to think, I went within a mile of Purkey's on my first trip, too...  https://dodgeforum.com/forum/members-rides/426498-ride-along-with-me-2.html

I'd try messaging the YouTuber "Mr Goodpliers". He has a lot of videos of cross country junkyard trips, but I think I heard him mention coming from Kansas in his recent video about the Great Mopar Horde in West Texas. I'd bet he knows whatever there is to know about Purkey's.

I added the subject line to the original email.

I have not been there but  Purkey’s Auto Salvage YTube date is 2017 and they have / had a F-book page that is not
updated since 9-2020, plus their website www.purkeysautosalvage.com is dead. So not many indicators of activity, fwiw!

Thanks,
