Man, that sure looks photochopped to me...

Its real. VMF had it posted a few years ago. In the east somewhere.

I believe it's a place known as "Heaven" :)

Is that CJ Pony's parts lot?

Check these out.

I dont buy it. Look at the Grabber blue car in the bottom front, no broken glass and an intact interior. Even the way the cars are stacked doesnt look right on most of them.

Isnt that a Colorado license plate?

Nope, i've been there, and it for sure isn't this place.

I have never seen it, but I just got an e-mail from my local Mustang club talking about a big Mustang junkyrad that is outside of Chicago. If I can find the email, I will share the info.

That makes it real..... I dont see a whole lot of rust on these cars for it to be East somewhere.... but then Vegas is east of you...

Looks like Chokelahoma to me.

Yeah, too hilly for Kansas.

Time for some investigative work. Ok, so heres what i did, i was surfing photobucket, and came across the first pic. So, after i posted it, i looked up the album, and found the rest of the pics. The album is by somebody called COMUSTANG. I then searched for it and came up with Colorado mustang. They made this car:

I remember seeing it on horsepower tv. Any who, i went to their website and sure enough, there are the same pics, of what they claim is "their salvage yard"

So if this place is in colorado, like Rick said, wheres the rust? Surely they get snow. so

!?

I doubt the DOT spreads much salt in the junk yard.

Did you e-mail to see if its open to the public? I'm up for a road trip....

Sluggo · « **Reply #16 on:** December, 14, 2009, 04:19:14 PM »

My 71 Mach was a Colorado car. It was pretty solid til the po left it outside in Houston with a hole knock in the windshield.

Colorado is a pretty dry climate.

I did, waiting on a response. I am doubtful of it though. Their zip code is 80010, i did a mapquest, and its a 22 hour drive for me. Chances of me getting there are slim to none. Anybody on here in the Colorado area?

silverblueBP · « **Reply #18 on:** December, 14, 2009, 04:55:40 PM »

Only 9 hrs for me, not that I'm going!

tarafied1 · « **Reply #19 on:** December, 14, 2009, 05:13:06 PM »

I'd love to go!!!
I have seen a real Stang junk yard...

lethal289 · « **Reply #20 on:** December, 14, 2009, 05:15:49 PM »

Thats really neat. Where was this at?

how far are you from 80010?

tarafied1 · « **Reply #21 on:** December, 14, 2009, 05:29:01 PM »

too far... but I have free Southwest tickets and free Hertz coupons and hotel points so I can go anywhere!

Their prices aren't horrible for restorable cars, at least from a body standpoint. http://coloradomustang.com/Content/Cars4Sale.aspx

I've seen complete rustbucket fastbacks sell for more than the $6500 they want for the red 68 fastback. Judging by the quarters and door corners it should be a fairly good foundation for a build. They have a fairly solid 70 mach shaker car for $8750 too
