Sunset Blvd Junk Yard Pics
« on: October 11, 2012, 05:24:41 PM »
 Went to an old junk yard today, havnt been there in years and Hugh is a friend and thought I would see if he was still kickin. He is 82 and still getting around a little and foolin with his junk. I snapped a few pics while there and thought I would share. Most of them iam not sure what year or what exactly they are just thought they was kewl.
 iam workin on him to sell me the 39 international :)

Very kewl.......thanks for sharing. That vw bus is wicked.......I have a friend about that age that has the same basic set up on his property. I haven't asked if i could take some pics, i might do that....He has over 200 old cars on his property......He can't get out on his own anymore, and hadn't been outside in 2 years. I bought him one of those 3 wheel mobility scooters and went outside with him a couple months ago and you could tell he missed tinkering with all his cars like your friend is still doing.....way kewl.

Some neat stuff, like the Poncho MeatWagon, the 64 Impala, the grill from the tractor needs a home on the front of a rat out there.

   I bought the grill off the tractor. Not sure it is for my rod though.

While we are on subject, here are some shots of my buddies yard located near Smithsburg Maryland.  They crush thousands of cars each year but spare the oldies.
