Most of our yards are long gone and sold out when the price of scrap metal rose in the late 2000's.Except for Victory Auto of course,but they have nothing older than 1995 and are 1/3rd the size they used to be,but they poured a concrete foundation so no more mud.
The southside Gold mine yards....Don's Towing,Cal Sag,Bob Billys and Canal Auto are all history.Globe Auto,(now in a different location) & O'Hare are still here but not at all as we used to know them from just a few years ago.It's all about the environment and moving cars out quicker than ever.They don't get the older 1960's-70's-80's cars coming in anymore & plus they don't really want them as they take up space and just sit & sit.
