That is interesting. I bet there is few olds in that pile. I guess we do things differently now after disasters. It is pretty timely as well, with good Friday just around the corner.

Every pile of junk tells a story. That one would take years to tell.

Why do some people seem to think Old Cars are junk to be discarded? Someone some where always needs parts. Andy

Tree hugger must have wrote that story. I would love to go through the pile though and find a 442 hood.

Most of the cars have been done there since 1964. They where damaged in a earthquake then push over 350 feet tall bluff. I doubt if anything would be worth saving.

I have seen pics and films of the quake and aftermath. Trust me nothing left of those cars.
