You'll likely see one or two but they'll be basically a carbureted 100 year old V8 under the hood. I have extrapolated mine will be 30 years old before the odometer sees six digits. Still won't be running in 39 years...
    Here in the north Jersey area, I've seen a number of wrecking yards close down.

    My Galaxie has a fender from Seattle, a grille from Virginia, a rear bumper from San Diego, a front bumper from (I forgot), a dash pad from Pa, and 500XL rear seat and speaker trim and a rear end from two different Jersey yards that are long gone.

    My 2003 TBird hasn't hit the 25K mark yet. The body on my Galaxie is about to hit the 220K mark. (In Jan, the Galaxie and I will celebrate our 50th anniversary.)

    All of these items were purchased pre-internet, but I was lucky that my job required me to do a lot of travel. I always found some time to go junkyard shopping.

    That's a 1965 Monterey Marauder
    1963 Marauder S-55, Super Marauder 406
    Only factory 406 powered Marauder, and earliest built Marauder documented to still exist.
