Location: Montreal, Canada | I see some very nice projects and parts there! Even unbroken dual rear antennas on that 57 Dodge sedan! |

Location: Ocala, Florida | I just want a dealer emblem and a Plymouth trunk lid handle! Sadly a lot of these will probably be crushed. |

Location: Ocala, Florida | Been looking for one of those guards for awhile now. Rare. Wonder what the story is on the early 50s spartan trailer?

Location: Louisiana | I just wish I could save the coupe trim from this '58 Fireflite carcass. Too bad I'm 1500 miles away with small kids and no more vacation days.

Location: Wales, Wisconsin | The sad part is that quite a few ND cars have very little rust. My 55 came from there and there is no rust in the floor, trunk or frame at all. Even the fenders over my headlights are rust free. As said above, crusher will probably get most of these. ND is so far from so much of the general population. I could really use some pieces off a whole car for mine and I am only 2 states away but it's still almost a 12 hour drive. Hopefully the rarer pieces will get saved. |

Location: Ponder, TX | Many of us would love to pick over that yard. I'll bet I could even find a dealer logo from Main Motors Sales in Minot, ND. Although neither my Belvedere or my '64 Valiant were sold there, I'd like to have one for the Valiant since I worked at that dealership in '64. |

I would be curious to know if any one here got a chance to attend this auction. I had plans to go initially, but as it turned out I had a prior commitment that I was unaware of. You can follow the above link to see what the final sales prices were. Other fees may have applied depending on how you bid, but with such low prices for the most part, it wouldn't have amounted to much. Prices appear to be pretty reasonable for the most part, until you factor in the cost of getting your new treasure(s) home. |

After looking at the results one would have to assume that the $350 bids were from the crushers as that seems to be the minimum sold price.
If true, sad that so many pieces of clean sheet metal, glass and trim will be crushed.
Unfortunately Bismarck ND is not really close to many populated areas and cost of transport would have been prohibitive. |
