    I think most of the folks on this board would be amazed at whats out there, if spotting something off the road is more difficult it is because there are more guys messing with old stuff, I fly low for a living and most of it in the country, I would love to take some pics from the helicopter and prove my point, but I have to stop short of invading anothers man kingdom by posting pics of his stuff, just cant do it. but, what I do is mark the location and go visit after work, in uniform, explain how I know whats hidden on his place. I have never had them the least bit upset, I dont ******** them and I dont lowball them, I simply ask how much would it cost to have that car sitting in my yard? and while Im visiting I ask the about any others they know of? I may not get what Im after that day but I try hard to make a good impression, one guy would only take half of what I had offered because he thought it just wasnt worth it, after telling me no three times.....I do this almost every week and between spotting and leads I can buy about 25% of the cars, so dont ever believe this stuff is drying up anytime soon......Vic

    Parts don't die....old hotrodders do. We are simply caretakers. The only good thing about the high cost of the good stuff is that the secret is out and most people won't just send them to the dump anymore.

    If all the kids get hooked on Civics there will be some great deals in the next 10-20 years.
