When C&J was founded in 1950, it consisted of the new part store, garage and a yard big enough for 30 cars. We would buy cars for the weight of the iron. Anything sold off the cars would be an added bonus. This is exactly opposite of how we do business today. We buy car and trucks for the parts, not for the weight the vehicle.

Now C&J operates on roughly three acres. We have over 150 cars and trucks in our yard and over 50,000 parts inventoried ready to sell. We process over 600 cars a year.
