Discovered a cool car graveyard today!!!

[Tripper]

I was visitin' with an old high school bud (yes... we had high school back during the covered wagon era ).Took some fotos of my new nailhead & when we went to lunch... my buddy showed me this awesome graveyard. It was hard to take pictures from the road but there are 200-300 cars easy. Most are grouped (Fords, Mercs, Mopars & a smaller section of old trucks. They're mainly 60's stuff but lots of 50's & earlier stuff too. Stuff is shown by appt only so my bud & I will b headed back there soon. He also gave me a lead on a 30's -40's yard about an hour & 1/2 from here so I may try to get over there next week! Anyway... check these shots!!! After we get an appt to see 'um closer up... I promise lots more pictures.

Gastrick,
They're for sale but only whole cars from what I can understand but after I get in touch I'll report back. It was hard seeing them all from he road & I can't wait to be out in there!!!

I thought it was pictures of your backyard for a second. There are some good ones in there.

I love junkyards and I really miss the small one I had near my home in east Tejas.
Hey I heard once on another forum that there is a Tucker in a junkyard down there somewhere, the dude said he saw it. Pretty sure they are all accounted for so

Hey Tripper..

Hey Tripper.


I am always looking for 60's Fords, trucks and cars.

Can you give me hollar ??

Willowbilly,
last time I talked to the owner of the Swigart Museum he said there was one that got sent to the scrapper waaaaay back then and is really unacounted for afterwards, so there might be some (though highly doubtful) crediblity to the "dude's" story. Mr Swigart owns the the Tin Goose prototype and I think car 13 so i would trust his word.
