I know Texas Exports is in Belton, TX (near Temple). Any idea where this place is? I'm only assuming that they now have all of these on consignment as thats the way Texas Exports operates. I don't need any cars, but parts is another story.

The auction is this week end, Feb 2 and 3, 20 miles south of Fredricksburg

I'd score that '46 Chevy two door sedan for parts if I was nearby. I'd really like the hood ornament off of that.

TexasHardcore · 02-02-2007, 01:38 AM

This place is supposedly off the beaten path outside of Comfort, TX, which is along I-10 between Boerne and Kerrville. Don't quote me on this, but it's just what I've been told by a guy who was out there during last month's "auction". He said a friend of his scored a '65 Buick, 99% complete, for $400 from this place last month. He also said everything on the property will be crushed and scrapped if not bought during the auction.

We're going to try to head out there Saturday, but we'll see.

Do your best to save something and let us know what happened...

Fredericksburg is not 2 hours south of Dallas, it is 1 hour south of Llano which is about 70 miles west of Austin

3blapcam · 02-02-2007, 08:01 PM

Alec,
If you get directions to this junkyard, would you call me?

I'm leaving the computer now and won't be back to it until Mon, but would be interested in maybe making a run to it.
Thanks
