Mission Impossible 318

I don’t know where around here is but you would have to be on a mission to find them which I believe you are not. Just here in Wisconsin there are so many junkyards that are not on anyones radar they are hard to find. I have discovered 4-5 junkyards in the last few years that are in out of the way places. And this is not to mention 318s in private collections. I have 5 for sure, maybe 6. Couple of early ones, one is a 68 to be exact and I believe one is a later roller cam.

Most of the junkyards around here (central Washington) scrap everything when it gets 10 years old. If you are lucky they keep stuff that is 15 years old but that’s it. That means if it’s 2007 or older it’s gone. And thats IF they keep stuff 15 years.

There is more profit in scrapping the cars when they hit that age than to store, inventory and maintain them.
