I'll start- Probably a good idea to post saved pics instead of links for posterity, since you know the internet is ephemeral.

My Eagle before I rescued it:

 

My brother’s truck before he rescued it:

 

An SX4 in the same JY my brother’s truck came from:

someone’s given up on project 

[strictlyxjs]

Poor caravan had 18k miles on it. Someone traded it in at a honda dealership. Dealership junked it. Not a speck of rust. The damage seen on rocker panel is from loader forks. Thing was absolutley mint condition.

[FrankTheDog]

What a shame.

 

Just like all the nice Cherokee’s traded in for cash for clunkers.

My local yard gets all sorts of old cars and they just throw them in the yard. Sad that people would rather throw an old project away than pass it on. It frustrates me haha

[The86manche]

A spirit hidden in the trees of a local yard. And not far from it another amc under two cars. Was the brother to the gremlin. Just can't remember what it was called lol

There were plenty of other old cars around it too.

Hornet perhaps.

Not a Harnett. It was the same body style to the gremlin. Different tail lights though

That’s the only one I can think of that’s the same as the gremlin. After all the gremlin is a hornet with it’s rear lopped off.

I had to look it up, it was also a spirit. I think a 78? Or 77 had square tail lights instead. Was bright orange and squished by two other cars.

[Classy Comanche]

I forget where I saw this at but this was just pushed way off to the side like singled out at the junkyard. It looked to be mostly intact. I was just thinking of the show truck potential

I take that back it was red. Lol

That car was put there quite a while ago judging by the size of that tree.

Yeah, my guess would be early 90s. Sad thing is it's rust free. It was a good car when it got put there. And then it wasn't. Lol

[DirtyComanche]

Whoever turned in that Ford Galaxie deserves to spend some time in Gitmo.  I am not a Ford fan by any means, but that's an absolute shame.

There was a version of the Eagle, that was the Gremilin body.

Yes, it was the Kammback. Probably 2nd lowest production Eagle. Second to the Eagle Sundancer convertible.

Don't forget about the turbo diesel eagle! Only 5 made

From Yesterday’s Expedition:

This 96 xj country was no rot, about 100k miles and 2wd but it looks like someone crashed it, the roof was completely cut off. 
Almost rust free f250 (probably mint before stacked on)

My buddy climbed up into this truck, the interior was pretty nice

Hey that's jacks! I go there from time to time. That's where the spirits are resting. A lot of the older stuff is around the edge of the yard to the right of the entrance.

You are correct, I was checking out that old iron yesterday, I couldn’t find a lot of xj’s sadly, but i did get to swing around to Holland’s and pick up an ac deck and console for my Comanche

I remember that one, didn’t get to looking for it, I was running out of time, but before I took the flares, all the ac parts, radiator, baby console, airbox, Intake tube, windshield trim, and interior door handles

here was it last time when I got all that stuff
