Yards in Alabama

[Zeus51]

Hey guys, I looked in these forums for sites in Alabama but all of the threads were 10 years old. I'm hoping to start an updated thread about where everyone is going in or around Alabama to get their MV's or salvaged parts??? Lets hear it??

To my knowledge, there are no pure mv salvage yards in AL. There used to be a yard near Anniston called Shortys' which had the scrap contract with Anniston Army Depot, but they sold out to a firm in NY several years ago. The current owners shred everything. What do you need? Someone in our club may be of help. http://www.ddmvpa.org/index.php

Hey 123mack and Zeus 51. I live in Alabama too. I have a Mep-802A generator. Does your club ever have any generator parts at your meetings with swap sell and trade. I would like to attend one of your events regardless....just to see all the cool military vehicles that I can't afford.

There's a guy with some M37 parts trucks up north of Athens. It's right along I-65 on the west side. It's not exclusively a MV place, but there's obviously interest there. I would guess there are some goodies stored out of sight too.

Here are upcoming events. The gun show this weekend will be a good display. There is going to be a Stuart tank, halftrack, M20 armored car, as well as the usual truck, jeeps, etc. No display at Maxwell AFB, was told today they didn't have room for us. The USS Alabama show will be display and swap meet. http://www.ddmvpa.org/?p=events

nothing I know of down here near mobile. you might see the occasional piece of green iron, but they are generally used up and put away wet. salty air isn't that kind.
