Amazing! At least some of the cars will be going to a "good home". Does anybody have info about the owner?

COPO - is this place anywhere near Lawrenceville ?

Re: 300 Old Cars in a Chicken Coop
 

Perhaps 35-40 miles NW of Lawrenceville.

I need a better picture of that black car, but it looks a lot like a Lamborghini Espada.

Ok, now that I have found the second set of pictures, definitely an Espada.

I'm pretty sure that Caddy with multiple carburation was a Tri-Power. How about the 59 convertible!

Wow!! Very special

Re: 300 Old Cars in a Chicken Coop
 

Casey, as far as pricing goes for most cars they are using the "Old Cars Pricing Guide" condition #5 and #6. I picked up a copy at Barnes and Noble. I found the pricing guide was considerably below market on Yenko Camaros, ZL-1's and other muscle cars. As an example they have a #1 condition (perfectly restored non-driven show car) valued at $49,000. Bet virtually everyone on this board would buy 10 at that price!

Tx for the update COPO. Interestingly enough, my same buddy was looking BACK through the pix and saw a '60 Starliner in the background of the pic of the yellow '69 Road Runner. He sent off an email about that one .......

Who ownes all these cars? How did they all end up there. Anybody have the scoop?

Re: 300 Old Cars in a Chicken Coop
 

The cars were aquired over the last 30 years by a gentleman that recently passed away. He also owned a restoration business in the Atlanta area and leased the abandoned chicken coops for years. Unfortunately the coops had severly leaking roof, and dirt floors resulting in the further degradation of the cars with most reduced to parts cars, however, there were also a number of decent project cars. Most of the cars were well worn or were wrecks prior to his aquisition of the cars. The surviving family is now selling the cars. If you're into muscle cars, there's virtually nothing left.
