    Here area few shots of a junkyard with about 1500 old cars, most (95%) are 64-73 Mustangs, None are really worth fxing but it is a great place to go to search for that part that is either not avilable or the Repro stuff is so bad you would not ever use it. It has a few Mustang ii's and one cougar and one Maverick. Another section has some late model and Fox body cars. He does not advertise and the place has no signs. He will be at Carlise under the name Mike's Mustangs

    Find anything interesting?
    By the trees and such, it looks like he is somewhere in the North East / East coast - I would expect a lot of rust.

    East coast near DC, rust is a given, have seen cars that have fallen in half when opening the doors. Rust is where you find it, my car got it drving around for a daily driver for the firt 20+ years i owned it. That and three trips to the Bonneville Salt Flats. The attached picture shows why I quite driving it, the floor fell out, I had slipped a piece of sheet metal under the floor and when that fell out i decided to quite driving it

    At least you can buy parts,hes not "gonna fix them all up one day!"
    they look pretty sad but appears lots of cool looking and digging.
    one day you'll look at that picture and think what a bunch of good cars they scrapped out!
