A Great Junkyard on the South Dakota Prairie: Ewe Pullet Self Service, Garretson, SD

This is one of my favorite yards! They keep the old stuff and don't crush it, adding old stuff now and then, sometimes from the owners collection. I met the owner, Art Nordstrom, a tall man with a cowboy hat, a big smile and an impressive knowledge of classic cars, and later I saw why. I got to see his private stash, a collection of outbuildings with complete cars, walls filled with steering wheels, hub caps and automotive signs, a scene right out of American Pickers. Art was happy to give histories on the cars, the engines and the collectibles that he's accrued over the years. It was a pleasure to spend the afternoon listening to him talk about the past, a time when your word meant something and a handshake sealed the deal. Much like Art himself.
