Haven't been to a junk yard since the 90s.

What ya need ? Pick N Pull has an online inventory search. Worth it if you need something in particular ...

Thanks! I guess things have come a long way since then. Looking for some more comfortable seats and a roof rack for my Tacoma.

As stated, Pick N pull. Walton Walker location is the nicest, south central is OK, I don't go to 2nd avenue alone, never been to Ft Worth location.

LOL. when I lived in Dallas I never went there alone either.. Guy that went with me had never been. He saw the friend chicken and waffles place there off the freeway, and said "Oh, we're in the hood huh ?"...

Ft. Worth location isn’t that bad. I went there last Sunday. Checked online for vehicles first. I went to look at a 1962 thunderbird for the seats, mustang for a tr3650, and a 1994 mark viii for the engine. Everything was already gone. The cars had only been there for 10 days. Always my luck.

Yeah, it's a rough area. The south central/310 yard isn't the best area, but it's mostly industrial through there, so not as sketchy.

It's that scary. If you look up crime statistics, that area is labeled as the "most dangerous" parts of Dallas.

Cruise down 287 in Kennedale. Seemed to have the best luck at the yards there

Yeah 2nd ave is bad, although I've been lucky and never had an issue. I'm always more worried about my car being broken into in the parking lot than anything else.
