I'm heading to the San Antonio area next week. Does anyone know of some good salvage yards in the San Antonio / Austin area? I found the CTC Auto Ranch, but looking for a few more. I'm looking for some '67 Cat fenders.

not too many left in the traditional sense, and most are picked clean of anything good.
I would keep an eye out for swap meets http://www.hillcountryportal.com/hil...ycarshows.html there is a car show on South Congress this saturday in Austin, maybe you can find some info http://cars.statesman.com/stories/51...arity-car-show

Ctc auto ranch bought most of their old cars from junkyards that had them for years. I went there one time many years ago. Their prices were very high and the staff were total jerks.

Might call them first & find out if there is even a '67 big car in the yard. If there is, expect "patcher" fenders @ best. Johns is one of the very few big country yards where I have been d!cked around by the owner after agreeing upon his price, & then I went out and carefully pulled the parts. All in 102 degree heat!

Have bought many obscure pieces off CTC @ halfway reasonable prices. Have never been impressed with the quality of their original sheet metal.
