There are supposedly still a couple in central MA and one in RI but then you've got the better part of the day invested by the time you drive there and back on top of perusing the lot.

As I think about it, it might even be the cost of the real estate as much as it is the liability. There's just not a lot of space left around here to keep acres of cars spread out until they've been picked clean. They just don't have the room so they dismantle them, keep the good parts and scrap the rest.
I have a pick-n-pull 300SD in my driveway.... you can come by any time and poke around
