Barry Wooten

Barry Wooten is a middle-aged man, in his late 40s, who runs the junkyard in the southeast of Ashton Creek. He was gifted the business by his father, Gerald Wooten, who founded the junkyard in the 1970s. Barry has always been a bit of a kooky, eccentric character, with a quirky sense of humor and a love of all things strange and unusual. For example, he is never seen without the large bear-eared fur hat he wears, even on hot summer days. He can be a bit brash and sometimes downright rude.

He is always scouring the town for new scraps and discarded items to add to his collection, and he has a knack for finding valuable items hidden among the junk. He is also a skilled mechanic, and he often takes on small repair jobs for customers who come to the junkyard.
