Shady Nook, OK junkyard tour

[OKDart]

Just saw this posted, 80 acres! I've bought a few things from him in the past, but never saw the yard. He is notorious for high prices. But I did get a 68-70 B-body 8 3/4 for $150.

Lots of other videos posted too.

Sad all that rotting away!

Lots of stuff. Parts for sale? Or whats the plan with that stuff?

I sold them a couple of cars a long time ago.
We used to call them Shady Crooks.
I could not afford their parts 40 years ago.
A very Cool cross-ram engine on display at the parts counter.

"There's gotta be Hemi cars in here - we just have to find 'em!"

I'm not sure what his plans are and why he's making the videos. Nobody I've talked to has ever been inside the yard before. AFAIK, it's all for sale, but a junk yard doesn't maintain a collection like that by selling at reasonble prices. I'm pretty sure his prices will be double/triple eBay prices.

He may act like a hillbilly, but him and his dad own half of Nicoma Park from what I hear. I imagine they're worth millions.

Wow, same videographer as the Blair Witch program...

Ain't no hills nears NE 23rd in OKC.

I sold them a TX9 T/A Challenger. I am sure it's long gone by now.
Besides the original T/A motor ended up in an ugly lime green 73 Charger.
Hmm — Maybe Its there.

Pretty much. I didnt really see any gems in there. But then again I stopped watching at the green RR

Looks like he is making "patina" cars run and flipping them.
(All makes and models.)

Several 2nd gen Chargers, AAR Cuda, 68-70 Roadrunners in the other videos. Most all missing front sheet metal though.

Thanks for the vid. Not to many yards left anymore.

I think this is the page he kept plugging.
He had marbles in his mouth every time he mentioned the web address.

When I first watched I thought he was a customer or some guy who just found the place. He acted like he was just getting to exploring the property. Then I thought maybe he just bought the place and was finding out what was there. But I guess it looks like he's just promoting the stuff he's picking out and putting at the entrance to try to sell. Interesting guy!
