Welcome fellow car nuts, we are here to help you and possibly entertain you too. We are two car guys who felt it was time to have a FREE classified site out there where you could sell your car, parts or other automotive items.
ClassicJunkYard.com has been around since 2003 and we are always striving to make the site better. The newest addition to this site is this blog which we hope becomes a favorite place for our visitors to learn something about the classic car hobby.
Let’s meet our hosts…
Kevin Schappell is a mechanical engineer and the computer geek behind this site. He works as a machine shop supervisor at a Reading PA company. He has been online since 1999 with AutoEducation.com helping people learn more about how their car works. His real love is classic cars, and his current project is a 1953 Ford F-100.
Dave Lehr is the motivation for this website. In 2003 Dave came to Kevin with an idea to allow visitors to sell parts off of their vehicles, instead of having the sell the whole vehicle on Ebay. He knew that there were plenty of people who like him, dabbled in selling classic car parts. In 2006 Dave took his car parts business full time and is actively selling his parts on ClassicJunkYard.com and Ebay. If you would like more information on his story click here.
Check out the article from Newsweek. A well written and researched article about how the internet has changed the parts marketplace. They even interviewed Denny Aungst a regular contributor to the forum and a friend of Dave Lehr.
