It amazes me that people hoard away stuff like that thinking there sitting on a gold mine. You'd have to bust your a$$ to ever recover an investment of 1.6m from all that. Doesn't even included the land!
That being said, I'd still love to have a shopping spree there with a big truck and bigger trailer...

Yeah it's not THAT big. 1.6 mill seems insanely optimistic.

But I can always fantasize about dropping an air conditioned shop on that lot and retiring.

yeah, good chance it would take you 10 years just to remove it all and maybe cost you 1 million. Pointless to sell it all without the land.

Looks like more parts available than there are cars/projects that need them. Not too much of a market for that stuff.

Of course, I'm not a resto kinda guy so what do I know?

The car collection looks like a ton of fun to go thru, imagine all the stories those cars would tell. And for the stoner crowd, 8 tracks and drug parafenelia(sp).

Wow, bit of an obsessive-compulsive disorder going on there. I've seen some serious hoarding in my time, but that takes the cake. I'm willing to bet the kids are selling that stuff off after a parent died. Most people who collect at that level have such an emotional attachment to their stuff that selling it isn't even an option. They would fall to pieces without it.

You know he's a North-easterner...He labeled the picture of the Grumman canoe, but didn't label the 4 sets of Mopar cross-rams intakes

That Canoe is WICKED SWEET!

What? Thats up for sale again?? I thought it sold 4 years ago.

We figured it would cost $2.3 just to cover the EPA fines! well...thats when they were selling the land.
