1000 cars headed for the crusher!
« on: August 01, 2011, 06:01:04 PM »
Got this link from a buddy of mine. I'd go look at theses, but it's a good 6 hour drive. Looks like there is lots of old worhty iron... but not really what I'm after. Maybe I should go. I dunno

Would be cool to go look. Too bad it's a long way.

I heard that most of the good stuff has been pulled already as the liquidation started years ago, but I bet there is some cool stuff still there.

Price seems fair, and the look's to be some good stuff there, especially in the 1950-1960- era.

It's East of Como, Colorado. They just told me the ealiest appointment date is August 29th. Seems like they are being kind of cocky about all this.  It's not as far away from me as I thought... if the traffic gods were with me, maybe 3 hours.

Wow a shoebox, 59 Ford, Imperial, Desoto................Wow. but .Seems to be a fair price on what is viewed. A ton of homeless looking for a home. Now if I could only hit the Lotto tomorrow night, 160M + could do a lot of good.

I talked to the owner of the cars. The whole deal is weird. The soonest appt I could get was at the end of august. I'm finding lots of people that say she's odd, and nearly all of the good iron is gone already. So, I'm not going to waste the day it would take.
