Im trying to restore a 69 fastback and i was wondering if anyone had any info on salvage yards that deal with older cars in the state of florida preferrably close to southwest florida but any will help. and also i want to put a 428 in it and due to money issues i would like to find one and do a rebuild but im not sure which cars they came in back then. thanks for the help
 
there is one(or was about 5 years ago) with all kinds of classic cars up in Zephyrhills, I remember seeing about 10 mustangs of different years there...in Tampa I know there was a place that was mustangs only....about 30 or 40 cars...but it may have shut down by now...I also seem to remember some place in Ruskin...anyway, thats all Tampa area stuff and wont help much....good place to go to find local ones is seriously, go temp for a few days at a local auto auction and talk to the regular employees, most likely they will know a dealer who will know, or a transporter,or even know a place personally, especially if they are older, etc etc...I only say temp because you cant get into a lot of the auctions unless you have a dealer liscence, are the guest of a dealer, or an employee and the first two options may not be accesible for the average person...while anyone can temp on sale nights
