Junkyards Around Here

Where do you guys go that has a decent selection of third gens? The few junkyards in my area have 2-4 Firebirds/Camaros and I've already picked through them all. Hopefully you guys can help me out, and preferably the junkyards are somewhat close to me.

I'm looking for:

Power Doorlock Relay
Intact Black Headliner, or atleast the cardboard
Black Sunshades
Center Caps (Silver Eagle)
Possible Black Rear Plastics (Have original grey now)


That's about it actually. I just like going through the cars looking for parts I need or are in better condition than what I have, its like a treasure hunt to me.

I was there today.Most of the 3rd gens look like they have been there for quite some time and are stripped clean.If you go just watch out for the sticker bushes as they are overgrown around alot of the cars

Re: Junkyards Around Here

Dirke's, which is on the Black Horse Pike down near the Hamilton Mall. Last month they had an '89 Iroc w/ the 350. I got the TPI off of it. I went back last week and the entire car was gone. The other 2 3rd gens were also gone.

Albion u-pull-it only has one 3rd gen Camaro and one 3rd gen Firebird. The Camaro had most of the good parts taken off. I'm still trying to find new yards that I haven't explored.

There is a guy in Brouge, PA (1/2 Hr South of York, PA,) that has several camaros and Firebirds, in the third gen year range, and some 4th gens to. Check out my forum lower on this page (GOOD JUNKYARD IN MY AREA is the title.)
