Jeff in the Junkyard: Vermont Visit

A few weeks ago, we profiled a craigslist ad about a Vermont salvage yard that was clearing out its old inventory, allowing any visitors brave enough to venture into this isolated stretch of the Green Mountain State to take… more»

$500 Fire Sale: Vermont Junkyard Clean-Out

For a few weeks now, I’ve been seeing a craigslist ad pop up on message boards and Facebook discussion groups. Part of me wants to keep it to myself, but this is too good not to share: an old-school… more»

Barn Find’s Junkyard Games!

We hope you all had a great Thanksgiving full of family, good food and fun! We sure did! Now that the turkey is cold and our stomach are still trying to recover, we thought everyone might enjoy a fun game to keep you… more»

Jeff in the Junkyard: Granite State Finds

After taking much of the summer off from junkyarding, I spent some time researching and calling over 25 different salvage yards throughout Maine and New Hampshire over the last few weeks. I haven’t spent much time in those areas,… more»

Jeff In The Junkyard: Back From Vacation!

As you may have noticed, I’ve taken a bit of a hiatus from my junkyard trips. Blame it on nice weather and not wanting to spend weekends deep in the woods getting bitten by ticks and scraped by brambles!… more»

Junkyard Cabriolet: 1963 Porsche 356

The wall of Porsches sitting behind this crumpled 356 may look familiar because we have featured cars from this seller in the past. They obviously run a scrapyard and from the looks of it, have a nice retirement sitting… more»

Jeff in the Junkyard: Foreign Relations

Even if I told you where this yard was located, you’d be hard-pressed to find it on a map. While somewhat known by junkyard raiders like myself, it’s not a place that advertises and the inventory rarely changes. So,… more»

Jeff In The Junkyard: Digging in the Archives

Due to the summer time activities taking priority over my junkyard excursions, I’m running out of fresh meat. But rest assured, an external hard drive still has a few gems stored away on it, and I’ve begun pulling together… more»

Jeff in the Junkyard: Return to the Forest

As I mentioned a few entries ago, my last junkyard visit provided more than enough fodder for a few weeks’ worth of posts. We’ll revisit this yard in Western Massachusetts for some additional diamonds in the rough, and, as… more»

Jeff in the Junkyard: Memory Lane

I decided to go a bit old-school this week and post some finds from yards I used to visit. I say “used” because they’ve since been cleared of anything remotely interesting and replaced with late-model garbage from the major… more»

Jeff In The Junkyard: Woodland Treasures

I had to find some new territory recently. It was bittersweet, in a way, because this latest yard represented the last of my “new” places on a list of six yards I identified over the winter. So, I’ll need… more»

Jeff In The Junkyard: Tiverton Forest

After taking a weekend off to attend a wedding, I thought this week’s edition of Jeff in the Junkyard should feature one of my favorite stops from last year, an active salvage yard in Tiverton, Rhode Island. This business has been around… more»

Jeff in the Junkyard: Amish Country Part 2

I mentioned in last week’s Jeff in the Junkyard round-up that my trip to Amish Country offered more than enough fodder for a few weeks’ worth of posts. We’ll move onto new territory next week, but for now, I still have… more»

Jeff In The Junkyard: Amish Country!

Well, the wait is over: today’s installment of Jeff in the Junkyard kicks off a multi-part series of my visit to a junkyard in Pennsylvania’s Amish Country. My brother and I plan a few visits each year where we check out… more»

Jeff in the Junkyard: From MA to MD

As we continue our weekly series of junkyard finds (you can find the previous two entries here and here), I’m being a bit lazy this week and combining some remaining finds from the yard that yielded my prized dashboard… more»

Jeff in the Junkyard: Dashboard Heaven

Last week, we kicked off a new series on Barn Finds that covers my adventures to junkyards up and down the Eastern seaboard. Although I visited an incredible yard this past weekend in Pennsylvania, this week’s entries focus on a visit… more»
