    Dreamland ! All the hidden yards around the North metro Atlanta area I go back to years later........are Subdivisions now. If it's a secret too long, someone dies, and the bulldozers follow. Awesome Pics.

    yeah no secrets.People not into vintage tin have a tendency to crush stuff like this especially if it gets into the hands of lawyers and such.The people on the HAMB who need projects,parts etc need to act on this now before its way too late, and we all have seen or heard stories about that shit happening

    This place is not a secret guys- they advertise in Hemmings, and have for years and years. The old man is still there, and his son's are taking over. They know what stuff is worth.

    Figure it out, don't be a spoonfed whiner. I was surprised some need to blurt it out to elevate themselves.

    Oh- and they take credit cards.

    I for one would like to give some props to Flat-Top-Bob here on the HAMB. He is great to do business with.
     
  15. Please check on the frt fenders, left front door off the 1936 ford 2 door sedan and let me know how much.

    I've got a good friend who was stationed at ft.riley... he would go there any chance he got...and send me pics out to me just to tease me because he knew there was nothing like it in my neck of the woods. thanks for the pics Malcolm.

  19. Anyone notice the model A coupe with the gas tank that looks like it filled with water, iced up and then expanded?

    Cool pics, thanks for sharing!

    I guess it's all relative, then. Some people have more spare cash laying around than I do. If they can buy some of this stuff, more power to them.


    ...and for some reason, HEMI32 deleted his post.


    Yes.

    Take it easy..... If I wanted to keep this a 'secret', I would have never posted the photos. Also, read my first post. I knew there were guys on here that would recognize the place and post the name. Simple as that.

    I honestly think it'd be cool if a few people ended up with projects out of this yard.

    Yes.




    I've recieved a bunch of PMs - Like I already posted, I only got the prices on two things - the flathead and the wheel. Anything else - I have no idea. Give them a call - and good luck! Let us know if you pick anything up out of the yard.....

    ...and I agree, Flat-Top-Bob IS great to do business with --- So, everyone that sees stuff in these photos that they think they need, PLEASE don't forget about him:

    Nick,
    How many times did you say "Fuck Me!" as you went through this yard?? Un-fucking-believable!

    Thanks,

    www.local.live.com has clear images of that area... Google Earth does not have good enough resolution...

    I just see a bunch of hay fields, edit*** I'm an idiot, it's just south of the local.live address marker... wow... that's a lot of land... I thought it was a development, but it's not, it's the garden of eden ala steel and chrome... but it's the right location as there is a short country road named Easy Jack's Road... alas, can not see all the autos... local.live.com has good images, but not zoomable enough... he's too far out in the country... haha

    That was a great bunch of pics. Thanks for taking the time to post.

    Loved the first stock car picture. There was a late 30's Ford stocker out in the woods near my house when I was a kid and I spent a lot of time sitting in that thing and dreaming (and chasing off bee's).

    I remember it had a chain drive center steer set up and the windows were cut out larger so you could climb in (with slit garden house pushed over the metal to keep you from getting sliced and diced).

    Great memory, and I am sure it has since been recycled into a Toyota.
     
  29. Like Nick said, Jack knows what he has. Went there a couple of years ago looking for spindles and hardware to put discs on my 54. After he told me the price, I told him I could buy what I needed at the same price NEW. If you want to go shopping expect to pay.

    Thanks for the pics Nick. It's a great yard to walk. Expect to spend top dollar though.
