I know of one, Buryl Wright of Alton Missouri, also a VCCA member. Buryl is almost 85 and still can rig up a 35 year old Chevy wrecker, to haul in an old six cylinder Chevrolet car or truck to restore. Life's a long winding trail, love Jesus and ride a good horse!

But, just like the new-comers at the Portland airport area (from an earlier post of mine), the new-comers in Madison County call this guys business a 'cancer' and so on. Quote Some folks have complained about "the growing cancer on U.S. Highway 25-70," but Linda and Charles contend that without the junkyard, Madison County would be littered with junk cars. My advice is ship those belly-aching jerks back to wherever it is that they came from. Bill. www.rdgsons.com/vcca/toyz.jpg

Back in the 60's I made several trips to two junk yards for '31 parts. See you down the back roads. See you Touring the Back Roads Joined VCCA June 1, 1961
