Motherlode! One man's junk, is another's treasure.

Me and my pal Cuzzin Deke stumbled on to some old cars today. The owner showed us some of the stuff he had. He doesn't want to sell anything right now. We did manage to buy a carburetor from him for our Model A coupe.

 

Saw lots of touring bodies, roadster bodies, cowls,engines, etc.

 

More photos including Cuzzin Deke (Dick) picking out the one he wants. I was fond of the flathead sitting in a Ford truck chassis with Fenton heads.

 

Walking over a small hill and there were even more to look at.

 

More pics.

 

That's cool as hell...

OH MAMA !,........

Bring that stuff home, with scrap up over $200.00 a ton, the thieves will be in that yard in no time !

Good Grief...!!

 

Looks like a cool old man. Hope he has some GOOD children that will not let this go to waste when he passes on. Also hope he sleeps with one eye open and a loaded 12 gauge to ward of the scrappers who would steal his treasures.

 

Cool...you got the trailer loaded...what ya haulin' home???

 

Humminna, humminna, humminna.... I'll trade you my seester for those Fenton heads!!

That's awesome. Keep us posted if he decides to start selling.

 

There were a couple of big barns FULL of car parts. He said he likes to buy stuff at auctions. I asked him if he had any Model A engines when we first got there and he said "yeah, I think I have a hundred of them or so."

 

Man you have seen more useable old tin in the last month than most of us will see in a lifetime !!

 

Does he have any daughters that need to get married????

 

Take a $100.00 for a map to his place???????????

 

Hell no!

 

WOW! great find!

 

Awesome find and he seems like a pretty cool fellow also.
He gave you "the tour" instead of setting the dogs lose and grabbing the 12 gauge..... '22

 

Nose to the ground and eyes wide open,about that blood hound thing?????I think you got the nose for the cool stuff>>>>.

 

Nah, it's just dumb luck. Right place, right time, etc.
