Approximately 30 years ago, Brian Nagel was in the fifth grade when his family moved to Little Rock, Ark., and entered the auto salvage business. Brian is now the day-to-day manager of A-Auto Salvage while his dad, Terry, is semi-retired, but still checks in regularly. At its start, the business was on two lots separated by a tow yard. The Nagels wanted to combine the lots into one contiguous salvage yard and soon were able to purchase the tow lot. Now all of the yard is joined together. There were several buildings included with the tow yard purchase, and those now house parts and some special vehicles, including a pristine red 1972 Ford LTD two-door hardtop owned by Brian's mom, a bright yellow Fairlane race car, a rat-rod and others. A-Auto does not ship vehicles or parts. The salvage yard is a you-pull-it operation, so if you see a vehicle in the photos that might have the part you need, you'll need to check it out and remove it yourself. Upon request, yard personnel will pull larger items such as engines, transmissions and suspension parts. |
