What a gold mine!!! There's some great looking tin in there. You guys out west are so lucky to still have places like that. Nothing that old survives the weather here.

Thanks for the pics

WOW! Someone's got to grab that '36 slantback Ford (or whatever it is) in the second set. I love that style, hard to find.
 
tripper,which one ? I'm like a kid in a candy store I want it all!! I gotta find a way to save it or I'm afraid it's gonna git scrapped the old man thats got it is in a home
 
I'm trying to get a package deal on it would there be anybody that would want the heads for rebuilding generators and such? I just can't sit on so much stuff and could use only a few items today I will find out what a package deal will be and I will get more detailed pics , I got to save it from the crusher maybe some of you guys can point me in the right direction thanks, chip..
 
mannnnn theres some good looking stuff in there.. just about everything seems pretty straight... i see some parts i need.. i need to go for a long drive out west... :)
 
Seriously, something needs to be done to save all that!!! I know those are big words coming from someone like me who can't even buy parts for my own build right now but damn, all that can't just go the way of the scrap man!! It just makes me sick to see vintage steel go to such a waste like that! It's really too bad we don't have a collective fund to buy up places like this. Wouldn't that be fantastic???

I wish I had an immediate answer!

I'd like to get a dodge 4 door I dug around in the sand and the bottom seems good
