Jeff, although I know of no immediate plans to tear the place down...it is in serious disrepair and doesn't look like it's been shown any love in years. I'm sure it could be bought, and likely pretty cheap.

Sam...I thought the same thing while I left my Chevelle idling there for those few pics by the garage bays...but unfortuntely there's no one left inside to provide a "Yenko Tune" so it still ran the same when I left. I did make sure I gave it a good 1-2 when I pulled out of the lot...since it seemed like the only appropriate way for a big block 4-gear to leave a place like that.

I'm sure I wasn't the first, and hopefully I wasn't the last. Someone with some excess $$$ should pony up and save the place before it really becomes history.

Hollowed ground for certain...if only that building could talk.
