Default Corvette junkyard in Missouri?

Anyone know of any corvette/classic car junkyards located in Southwest Missouri or surrounding communities in Kansas, Oklahoma, Arkansas? I am going to be in the area for a week to ten days looking for something to do while visiting the in-laws the Branson, Mo. area and thought this would help pass the time.

IIWM (if it were me) I'd be up to my waist in the 50 deg. water of lake Tanycomo catching rainbows and browns.

You are right. What am I thinking? My outlaws actually live on a bluff overlooking Table Rock lake. Used to fish pretty regularly, but as family has moved away and the years have past you lose interest. Maybe I will give it some thought. Supposed to be mid to high 60's next week.
BTW- we used to live in St. Joseph in the late 70's.

I use to live in Aurora, Mo. and there were several Corvette salvage yards in the Springfield area. I do not recall the names of them since I moved to Florida in '88.

There are also several classic car dealerships in/around the Branson area, I see a couple on 60 highway coming into Branson from the eastern part of Missouri. I'm sure stopping at one of these will connect you to any salvage yards in the area.
