      Some of that stuff people probably paid to have it picked up and some was bought for scrap metal weight alone .

      The land is most likely on the edge of an EPA hazardous waste site and would cost you more than it's worth to clean it up the way they would require once it is sold.

      hey watch me make a convertable top out of a bedliner, looks like a Red Green sanctuary

      Looks like an overwhelming amount of crap to me. Im sure you could get your money out of it but the time it would take may not be worth it......

      Funny. i see my childhood there. My dad owned a wrecking yard till I was 17. I grew up playing in buildings full of parts just like the one pictured above. I'd buy all that stuff If I had the money. Just to have a wrecking yard again.

      I would have a blast there!! So many cool cars and parts. Amazing.

      The only bad thing is that it slowed down my computer like a slug! Soooo many pictures.

      Damn! It would take years just to sort out and ID all that stuff!!
      I am not useless, I can still be used as a bad example!

      Look, I found me a pot of gold!!



      Oh wait, that's just a pot of pocket change...

      Dang, if I had the money, I'd be in a quandry about buying all that stuff. I know I'd get my money back, and then some, but I'd be way too afraid of not knowing some of the really rare stuff is worth and selling it for cheap. Plus I think it would take me 5 or 10 years just to wade through everything and sort it out...

      I agree with what has already been said. That guy must of had a screw loose to collect all of this stuff and hoarde it. Selfish. And for God's sake, put those cars in a garage!!! Just rusting out in a field... ahhhh!!!
