I find plenty of surprises during my junkyard travels, including some fairly solid postwar Detroit luxury machinery that— in my opinion— shouldn't have been discarded. You'd think that someone would have wanted to grab a 1958 Cadillac Sixty-Two Sedan in flamboyant Tahitian Coral pink paint before it hit the inventory at a Denver self-service wrecking yard, but such was not the case.

In fact, a competing yard a couple of miles away has a pink 1959 Cadillac sedan parked out front, trying to find a buyer before it, too, hits the yard between an Olds Aurora and a Saturn L200.
