Someone should start a reality show for the car hording guys, (going to fix-em up someday).
Hi, my name is Richard, and I’m a car hording guy. I believe I counted 5 - 55 Chevy's one 57 Chevy plus the 55-57 pickup. I couldn’t tell what the others were.

We did a 3 day turn around trip to Arkansas last week and here are some pics of some "Vintage Tin" that we saw along the way. These were all taken in Heber Springs Ark, Pickle Gap Ark and Atlanta Texas.

Ooooooooooooo......... Coupe..........uhhhhhhhhhhhgggg. It's a shame to see em sit and rot, but the alternative. When scrap got so high, a local yard had about an acre of old late 40's and 50's as well as some corvairs and such. I was waiting for them to pull an engine for my sons pu, so I went to the back to drool. The field was empty. Crushed em all for 200 a ton. There was an origianal 49 50 ford 2 door, flathead v8, all there and very little rust. I thought I was gonna puke.........................:CRY:

The 55 Crown Vic shows promise.
If nothing else, it would sure make a good parts car for someone that is Resto'n a C-Vicky - - - - Is that "christine" on the other side of the '55?
The 55 vick was complete, needed a resto, pretty solid car though, he had the motor to just needs a rebuild, he wanted 5000.00 though. His prices are going rates, but on the high side. There was more cars, around 100 so I did not look at all, my eyes just focus on 20's-40's stuff most of the time. I sure would like to have the 55 vick, good builder.:D
While down in Yuma earlier this year I visited the Johnny Cloud Museum in Bard, Ca.
Wow Larry, That place is like a dream come true!
We drove up to Fairfield, Tx and then over to Mexia today to grab some lunch and during the turnaround we saw dozens of flatbed trailers with vintage/stock A and B Models going somewhere. Being that it is Wednesday, I wonder where they were going. Any of you DFW folks have any idea??
Sure does, Johnny said he has over 120 'T' and 'A' in various stages of rust and paint. I ran into him and his wife down in Algodones, Mexico which is just SW of Yuma. He said he was there to line up another paint and upholstery job on a couple of his cars, he gets them done down there.
Oldmanb, Yup, I thought I died and went to Model T Heaven!:D
fellow said he had to have to have 2 grand .. i said i`ll keep my 2 grand :HMMM:
