Indiana: Unknown Junkyard, Owensburg


checker

Recommended Posts

I wasn't sure the subject to put this under but based on the owners info there is a junkyard of sort near Owensburg Indiana.  Exact address is 9322 E State Road 58, Owensburg, IN 47453.  I did look on Google earth and there does seem to be a large collection of older cars.   Do any of you live near this yard?  They have a rare 1967 Daimler DR-450 limo I'd love to find out about.  Owners says it's solid but that is always a matter of opinion.  The tag under the hood provides some of the info needed such as Chassis number and Engine number but the owner seems elderly and immobile perhaps.

According to the Google map street view, this is Fred Carr's Garage, possibly a body shop.  Cars in yard may be late-model.  Telephone number is (401) 725-5261.

Jon, I've spoken to the owner (Vic Owens) several times (different number).  He claims it's a junk yard.  Could indeed be both.  When I googled it I discovered several business names.
