    Here is a small yard that has about 40 acres of cars. His prices are dirt cheap.
    He will let you in the yard and wander about till your hearts content.
    The operators name is Karl Neuhause. Its located on the Northwest corner of the intersection of County Line and Willow Road. County Line road is appropriately named as its the north edge of Sheboygan county. The easiest way to find is travel hwy 32 between Sheboygan and Kiel Wisconsin. As you hit the Sheboygan/Manitowoc line County Line road comes in from the east, Travel east for about 1 mile. You'll see the yard on the north side of the raod.
    Karl lives at the yard and is almost always there. You can go there on the weekends and stay till dark if you want.
    This yard is not in the phone books or any other sources. Its known by the locals and that's about it.
    One odd thing is he charges state sales tax of 5 percent. So have some change handy.

    there is a 66-67 Sport wagon, a 64/65 4 door Skylark, a 66/67 Tempest/Lemans 2 door, a 65 Tempest wagon. I know there is also a couple of 64-67 chevelles. Right off the top of my head I can't recall any 64-67 Olds A bodies. As far as cars, I would say most are 60's a couple of late 50's and some early 70's.
    I don't mean to argue but its alot more than 4 acres. Its about 1/4 mile square. Go to google earth and find it for yourself and be the judge.
    The owner is a Ford guy. He has a Retractable sitting inside a bus.
    I'm just passing this info on, hoping to provide a source of parts and/or entertainment for those inclined. The yard is easy to get around in, no problems taking a hand cart thru the yard with you.
    If your in the area its worth a look.
    I can recommend other yards in the Wisconsin Minnesota area. I know some people are very guarded about junkyards. I look at it this way, the parts won't be around for ever, the sooner they get out of the yards and into someones horde/collection the better for all of us. They don't do any good rusting away or getting crushed. Which is the inevitable end for anything in a yard that does not get sold.

    If your in the area here is another "off the map" yard. Its Located on County Hwy C about 3-4 miles east of St. Nazianz Wisconsin. St Nazianz is your typical small midwestern town. Maybe 1000 people. Its about 4-8 miles south and about 15 miles west of Manitowoc.
    I can't recall the name of the place but its on the North side of the road behind a one man auto body shop.
    It's not hard to find. The guy who runs the body shop owns the yard. The yard is right behind the shop in a woods/swampy area that a creek runs thru. His prices are very reasonable. He will let you roam the yard on your own. There are about 1/2 dozen buses in there with parts in them that need a good look. I would say the yard is about 25-35 acres, but the cars are spread out some what. and its miserable in the summer. And with the brush/grass grown up you won't see all the cars. Lots of skeeters and ticks. wait till late fall or early spring. Most of the cars are pretty rough with all the moisture that is there. Mostly 60's stuff.

    I remembered the name, Wally's Auto Body.
    While your in the area just a couple of miles from there is Tislers salvage Inc. Its address is 11530 County Road NN, Cato Wisconsin.

    Just google it for location, reasonable prices, will let you roam the yard.
    Bigger than both of the other ones, be sure to check inside all the semi trailers and school bus that are full of stuff. Late 50's to current stuff.
