One called Dino's in Picauyne(sp?) Mississippi. Mostly C4 and C5 though. Had maybe four C3's. Did have a nice 71 BB in the showroom for sale though.

I'm going to be in SA next week and might want to take a side trip, can you tell me where the Corvette salvage yard is there?

email sent! If you don't get it, just do a Mapquest search for "Old Grissom Road" in San Antonio.

Old Grissom Road is only one block long but Mapquest will give you three choices. You can pick any of them but choice #2 ends up being almost exactly across the street from Salvage yard.

Good luck!

Chris

I think you guys didnt mention Paragon, they have their own boneyard. You can get their catalog free also. Just type paragon corvette in google for the website.
