    Wow, ****loads of good stuff there. I like the split windshield on that first 2 door sedan. Can any of this stuff be bought? Surprising to see that stuff just laying around like that.

    I see the tail end of a '59 DeSoto in one of those pics, got any shots of that one?

    That is a Very Cool Yard.. Theres lots of Old Tin up here.. Lethbridge Area is a hot bed.. for this kinda of stuff.. Theres lots of Farmyards that have that same look up here. Old TIN...

    I remember a good friend that was South of Lethbridge.. he had a Yard of every thing old.. 20s 30s, 40, 50s.. The sad part is when he p***ed on.. it all Got crushed.. Rust free Restorable cars. Very sad to see.. it all dissappearing .

    Theres Old tin up here.....just like Northern Montana..

    Looking again, it appears that the Desoto is a '56 converted into a pickup truck. Interesting, wonder if it had a motor in it yet?

    Time the **** out! Yes, those are great shots, but you mean to tell me there are places in Canada that don't get pounded with snow? I'm in Maine up to my eyebrows in the white stuff and I'm sick of it and winter isn't even half over.
    Alberta's a big joint, can you give me a ballpark area that the wife and I should strat looking for jobs? Not even joking, I'll bring my own rusty tin with me if that makes you feel any better.

    Gigantor, parts of Alberta are high desert plains. Dry, arid climate.

    In the Summer , Southern Alberta is very dry.. 4 hours North of the Montana Border. and North of Calgary... it changes.. The winters vary.. what ever way the wind blows.. From the west.. Humid, From the North . DRY.. ..

    I cant say what yard that is.. Because there are a few that look the same as the thread starters pictures.. just in yards, not in cars..

    Where have I been? It was 20 below last week without the wind chill. The cold I can handle... it's pushing all this white stuff around that gets tiresome. It warms my heart to see green gr*** and blue skies. Sigh.

    I don't know there is snow on a number of the vehicles. There wasn't much snow out on the fields when I was in Lethbridge this week. Definitely southern Alberta. May not be current but it wouldn't surprise me if they were.

    Gigantor we don't get a lot of snow anywhere in Alberta compared to the east it is just too cold and dry in the winter. When we do get snow it is usually very light because of the lack of humidity. Hell it rained in Edmonton last week.

    These belong to another gentleman. Hmmm, so where is this Stan Reynolds stash????:D

    I don't have permission to reveal his iden***y. He let me wander his property one afternoon and it was a blast. I did inquire about a few items and they were fairly pricey.

    They had an auction a year and a half ago, almost everything was sold.

    I'm pretty sure I know this yard, there's a reason everything is still there. That guy wants ridiculous money for whats there, and I've heard he isn't very honest either... I friend called him about a couple Impalas, the owner said they were very nice, solid cars. He had to DRAG them out of the gr***, neither had and wheels, rockers gone, fenders gone, gl*** gone, no floors....

    Regardless, there is a lot of cool **** there thats for sure.
