Hidden Junkyard with Mercedes - Moncure, NC

Thought I would share this place with you since I know the owner and he does not advertise much. He has been buying more and more Mercedes lately. A bunch of gassers (good body parts) and some diesels. There were others that I did not get pictures of. Many really good parts, engines, and interiors. I've gotten many wagon parts from him

I took these pictures with my phone so they are not that great, but it will give you an idea.

Lowes Used Auto Parts - Jerry Lowe 919-542-5993. Just don't call him tomorrow on Sunday....
He's a good man that works at his own pace, so be patient if you need something. If you go there you may be greeted by horses, cows or a bull or two. I left my door open once and a bull with big horns started to stick it's head in my Excursion. Thankfully he scared him off

Tell Him Michael Mansour sent you for a better deal .

Gol-ly!

It's not often I wish I lived on the East Coast, but in this case I'll make an exception!

Some of those look too good to be in a junk yard.

Hey, if you come through the Raleigh/Durham area, let's grab a quick bite or drink. I didn't really get a chance to chat at Chad's last year.

Oh, and I'd be up for a convoy. Let's swarm the guy and make his day by buying lots of stuff!
