I'm in SC too. Where is this Mustang yard? The closest I've found is in Jax, FL and I felt the same when I discovered it.

its about 15 miles west of columbia going on i-20 towards augusta. take the hwy 178 exit towards batesburg/ leesville. its about 75% fords, some plymouths ect. but mostley fords. beware the guy that runs it is kind of a d*ckhead. i found the thin grill chrome i needed and brought it up and he got pissed and told me i needed to buy it all together, grill, wide inserts, pony, ect. had some bends in it and very dull told me $75.00 for all. told him i did not mind paying for any kind of mustang parts, hell have overpaid on some, but told him i did not appreciate him talking to me like i was a piece of sh*t, he said i did not have to be there, i said your right and went down the road to his competitor. just a word of advice, dont take any sh*t off him

Nice find. Hmm, looks like I'm going to have to make a little trip to Columbia and check this place out. Of course, if I show up in the new Mach 1 he'll double all his prices for me. I need to bring the truck instead, but it'll cost me 3 times as much in gas. Oh, the irony!!

i drive a 68 coupe w/302. yea dont show up in anything that shows money, i usually put my real greasy jeans and bears t-shirt, bandanna, and drive up in my beat up 87 cherokee, so i show up poor (which i pretty much am) and he is pretty lenient on most things, not a good judge of beat up chrome though. and i wanted this kickdown cable off a crown vic trannie offered him $25.00 for it but he said it goes with the trannie. i guess thats o.k wouldnt want to buy an aod with things missing. check it out open 6 days a week
