This property is about 5 minutes from my house. Sadly the owner doesn't like to sell, I think he's going to start crushing cars soon.

Man i'd like to get my grubs on one of those old truck cabs,got the itch to build anudder rat.
 
:angry9:eek:uch the 59 elcamino 's and wagons ,a road runner ,and a pontiac catalina 2dr. sad ,I always liked the 59's, to bad there's alot of good stuff to restore there ,and also alot of good parts also,to bad you couldn't buy them for the scrap price to take them off his hands:disgust:
 
Go in with 2500 bucks in cash.

Tell him you'd really like to have that Roadrunner, if he can find the title, and lay down ten 100's.

That's more than double scrap price, and still a good deal on the RR.
 
Always liked the 59 El Caminos. A lot of good stuff there. Hate to see it go to waste.
 
I don't get it.
If I ain't fixin' it; Why would I not want to sell it.

I just don't understand why someone would want to let these cars rot.
 
I guess the decision is to each, I think i would sell some, even give away a couple with a promise they bring it back when its done to see it.. Save them, maybe help a young lad get into the car hobby..
 
guys as much as we say something about ,I think if we all pool our money together and fine a nice dry area with alot of land we should start buying and put them on it ,so when we need parts or another project we have them.:head_smack: :th_krazy:
 
There are some highly desirable cars there. It should be a crime to crush cars like this. What's wrong with these people do they not like money?

I would love to see a google map aerial view of this yard. Could you give the address?

I just checked it out and its staggering at how many cars are actually on this property! I need to go back there I think.

And here are some more.
 
I know the owner of this property and the cars and I've been there many times myself. I haven't talked to Gary in a couple of years now but last I heard he was getting hassled by the municipality to get rid of the cars. He will sell because a few years back I was looking for a project and the only thing he had that I wanted was already sold. I seriously doubt he will ever crush the 59 and 60 Chevys though. Those are his faves. Next time I'm through Oliver I'll have to stop by and chat with him.
 
Makes no sense. I think he's sitting on a gold mine. To each his own, I guess.
 
there's a few ,odd mercurys there also , if you guys go back see if he'll let you take more photos of these cars and alot of real good close ups , I'm sure there are alot of guys that might need parts or complete projects ,you might be able to help him out plus help some memebers here too ! maybe some interior shots :headbang:
