Event Coverage Old Car Wrecking Yard Selling - Fresno, CA

got this info from a flyer at recent swap meet. I have no other info or pics.
they are selling all cars and parts from Globe Auto Wrecking (opened in 1938). have over 100 cars from 1930-1955 and over 100,000 parts For Sale. call Steve 559-352-1407 for an appointment.

 

sounds like a rare opportunity if it is a "getting out of business" type sale.

this is the only pic I have, from a couple years ago

 

WOW, looks like some big ol' tin in that satellite view.

 

The yard was cleared out earlier this year. The cars and parts all sold and have been moved elsewhere...

There was some neat stuff there.

hmmm- the flyer I got info from was new, maybe whoever bought the cars, etc is the one selling them now.

 

I am pretty sure that is the case, I think the stuff was moved to somewhere around Kingsburg.

 

Is that like a '36 Hupp in the one picture? Super rare car.

 

he has a Shark nose Graham too. Or did.

 

evening

 

morning

 

these were all before the stuff was moved

 

All these pics were before the stuff was moved to Kingsburg.

 

Thanks for pics. Turners Auto Wrecking on Willow Ave in Fresno had a lot of old cars too.
still open?

 

Lot of confusion on where and what is left.

 

As far as I know Turners is still open. They still have a Ton Of old cars visible from the road. He has been crushing stuff, but there is a lot of O/T, post 71 junk there. Good source for 50's stuff. Any Fresno guys chime in. all my info is a year or two old.

 

I don't have any info, other than the Globe collection was moved to Kingsburg. It was bought with the intention of resale.( according to what I read on the Studebaker Forum) All I have are the pics my brother took from February 2012. Just trying to get as much info out to anyone looking.

 

for more info need to contact seller listed above

 

That's a 1935 Hupmobile 518D - 1936 Hupps had a die cast water fall grille with the Buck Rogers spaceship hood ornament....
