every day i go to our farm i drive by the place. its just huge and a complete shame to have all these old cars just sitting there. the areas even alot biggger than what it looks like from the road. i would say that theres possibly more than 300 cars. me and 307 will have to go out one day and get a video of the place. old cars, trucks, busses, wagons, suburbans its just insane. theres even a couple cars that have been derbied/raced mixed in among the lot

When i was 19 I found a 76 ltd with 78,000 miles in a barn. Car was way rusted out but I put the 460 in my 1983 f250. Was a fast truck but loved its fuel.
