    That is a time capsule. I love it. You could make a period correct auto parts store display from that. How cool would that be? It would go perfect with the scenic period-correct gas stations people liek to build.

    The Perfect Circle piston rings were built right here in Hagerstown, IN. Actually less than 1,000 yards from where my **** is right now at the computer. They were bought out by Sealed Power years ago.

    If you see anything you have to have, make me an offer. Vehicles will need to picked up at their location.

    Yeah how about Muleshoe?!? GO MULES!!!!

    Oh Seminole. Well my Dad and I are planning to make a trip out there in that area. He grew up in Muleshoe(So did I pretty much visiting grand parents R.I.P.) and that area. Going to search the area and see what we find. We have already seen a few gems traveling from Dallas there and back.

    Here's some more pics of stuff. My buddy and I need to sort through this stuff and start listing it for sale. Then a lot of it is just s**** metal too bad prices aren't like they were last year.

  20. Did you get his stuff down the road? If it hasn't been s****ped, there's an Es*** frame made into a trailer. Some nice old people owned that stuff. I think their family was waiting to auction it off.

    Didn't know of anything else down the road. Apparently he has another building in town an old skating rink full of stuff too! They already had one auction and this is all the left overs. Heard one guy picked up a 32 Ford for $1000. The old man was recently put in a home and the family was going to junk everything so they can sell the property.!

    28-29 A convertible? Someone else told be a coupe with out the top?Would have the best one there but is in very, very rough condition!
     
  27. Probably close to a mile east of the main batch of cars ( maybe where the auction was)
    is some property with some truck stuff, a '58 Ford, some tractor hulks, a whole bunch of wheels, and a '60's large Ford truck. This was four or so years ago. On the north side of the road- the main road out of town. That's where the Es*** frame/ trailer was.

    When I spoke to him, no mention of a '32. There was an A coupe out there in back of the original car lot. Still had some light yellow paint on it but was VERY rough. He wanted too much for it.

    I might still have photos saved, but that computer crashed.
