I've been occupied all summer with good and bad things. just posted some of the bad. one good thing I was contacted by some folks who purchased a huge chunk of land with over 4 thousand vehicles. Alot of them are complete. over 300 VWs. most cars are between the 20s and early 70s. over 150 Studebakers of all types. as this progressed they found I knew more than Bugs and have been working a day or two a week helping out....words cannot do justice. Many cars have been sold and more going every day. One car is really interesting. 1946 Ford 4 door and on the front doors says"Atomic Energy Commission". Complete. Was at Walker AFB during the 47 event in Roswell. Buried in the back and a lot of vehicles have to be removed before we can move it to the front of the building.. This isn't a sales pitch but if anyone here has a certain vehicle you've been dreaming of...let me know. I'll also post the website later so you cam view the place. Sad thing is many vehicles have to be crushed to make room....I'm helping to save what I can.
 
I'd be interested in any old Hondas they might have...especially the 600 sedan or coupe.

I'm in Denver and would love to drive down and look around or help them out for a few days.
 
sorry....not any Hondas so far. One Jensen Healy someone speared with a front loader...mostly old Detroit iron.
 
Sounds like the place in Arizona they're been trying to sell for years. Cars as far as you can see, thousands of them, and they want them all gone!

If you spot any obscure old cars, not big names like Dodge or Ford, but lesser known brands that went out of business by the late 30's, let me know!

Too bad.....please let me know if they do dig any old Hondas out (you never know).

I'd be interested in any oddball cars.....the weirder the better. How about a '58 Impala, although I know the odds are slim on finding one of those.


Oh yeah.....take some pics of the yard for us! :smile:
 
if you see a cheap cheap cheap Multipla shell, I might be interested. Did I mention cheap?
 
Tons of 65-67 Impala SS cars. One 61 Bubble top Chevy...had a few more but all sold. Quite a few 58-59 T-Birds....Corvairs all over the place...some verts. Saw a few Consuls.
 
Jack,

Than you for saving all those cars!If you have a list
of any English Fords,or Datsuns,please let me know.

Any decent pre-war stuff?
 
I'd love to have an old VW. But.... too far, too much...
Someday I will have a late 60s bug, and a westie camper.
 
A 1932 5 window Ford coupe ?? :smile:

I'm going to work at the yard wed-thur, maybe friday. I'll take dozens of pics as within a month they're moving the baling equipment in and start disposing of this stuff. Seems a shame but everything has to end sometime.
