Re: Depression Era Los Angeles Junk Yard

Tom;
Thanks for sharing that. What an interesting set of photographs. Oh if you had them today! But of course back then they were just old cars that didn't run or were needed anymore. Just like the person said in the comments section, between the depression and making some money on used and scrap parts, the World War II scrap drives did away with many of our era cars.

Where Are You From? Oviedo, Florida

Do You own a car built by Durant? 1928 Durant Model 65
