MN71W30 · April 14th, 2009, 08:26 PM

MN71W30 · April 14th, 2009, 08:27 PM

And a couple old signs in the woods

Minnesota,huh.... looks like a place here in Georgia called 'Old Car City'.. minus the snow.. add more weeds,brush, and trees... plus Qagmires... soo overgrown most of time not allowed to walk around in the back sections { fear of snakes and people getting lost...}
it's kinda spiritual seeing all the [once] beautiful classics {predominantly pre 60s with just a few in the 70s}.... but a bit 'depressing' to see them all sitting there rusting away -- however is some hope for a few that get bought up and go to a caring home....
I'd send pics but still haven't figured the correct 'sizing' for files/pics... but you can google 'Old Car City' in GA - they actually have a web site with a virtual tour [ I don't think it shows all of the cars on the property.. which is pretty large..]

Thats a cool junk yard. I would think the cars would have to be better off in GA than in MN. But they seem to grow into the earth after a while.

i was at that yard back in the 80's when i lived in Marietta,Ga.

every time i asked the guy how much a car was,they would just say "2 grand".

going to that place is a total waste of gas.

Danielle's 71 · April 15th, 2009, 09:10 AM

dose this palce have a phone number?

MN71W30 · April 15th, 2009, 10:20 AM

The guy is an odd duck to say the least. He always brings up ebay at checkout time. I have been stopping in there for 30 years. I'm dealing on a few things right now so I need to wait a bit to pass out the number. I was trying to get a price for the sign but they scan ebay and price accordingly.

Danielle's 71 · April 16th, 2009, 06:31 AM

ok thanks!

Where is that yard? Ive been to French Lake, Windy hills, and Rohners. It kinda looks like French Lake. Also There's a guy out near South Dakota that has a lot of treasures. Mostly Ford though but he has a 70 Boss 429 and a 53 (I think) Ford Convertable Indianapolis Pace car. and a 69 Mach 1 The guy took us from barn to barn. We were in awe. He dug showing us because I had my boys with and he likes when kids like cars instead od stupid computers and video games.
