    Remember When You Could Find Ford Comètes At Pick Your Part?

    It's tough to say exactly when this mini-documentary about the Pick Your Part self-service junkyard in Sun Valley was filmed, but the vehicles on the yard appear to be mostly early-to-mid-70s models. My junkyard-scrounging experiences says that indicates a late-80s/early-90s timeframe. Some pretty cool cars may be seen, from an AMC Javelin to a Ford Comète… and what's the story with that tandem-axle chopped Cadillac wagon? Make the jump to check it out.
