Re: Just saw this in Old Cars Weekly
Those photos are absolutely hypnotic and I bet that was a nice little surprise when the Chevelle trunks were opened. This was one heck of a 401K plan for someone's retirement.

Re: Just saw this in Old Cars Weekly
Anyone else notice the yellow engine block on the floor?
 Pretty awesome discovery.

Re: Just saw this in Old Cars Weekly
I heard about this stuff 2months ago. The guy passed away and his sister sold everything to one guy. I was told the first trailer they opened,had a yenko camaro and 2 ls6 chevelles.The guy welded the doors shut because some trailer had been broke into at one time and that is why it took them a wwhile to get inside. I had a hard time believing that this was real,but now i see the pictures and know it is true!

Re: Just saw this in Old Cars Weekly
They are looking to sell everything to one person. The yenko is N615312 he said. But must be N615313 V.V Cooke, and low miles. Roger

Re: Just saw this in Old Cars Weekly
Per the article, there may be a Yenko Deuce in there too... He evidently swapped out big blocks during the gas crunch, most of the BBC's are evidently Corvette engines, freshly rebuilt and then stored... He also swapped out the original engines in the cars (keeping them) just in case they were stolen, they wouldn't be numbers matching? Odd.
All of the trailers were welded shut and put end to end so they couldn't be opened or moved... He supposedly drove around a rusty El Camino...all these great cars (I love Elcos...)but really!

Re: Just saw this in Old Cars Weekly
Just proves you never know what people have stashed away... the one lead you don't follow up on could be the gold mine you miss out on. I can't help but wonder how much the sister sold all this stuff for...I bet someone got a very good deal.

Re: Just saw this in Old Cars Weekly
And the women wonder what we want for Christmas? . It's almost too much to believe! . Like Rick said, I'd love to go through the engines checking suffixes and Vins! . Santa, if you're real please swing by this place for a sleigh load! ~ Pete
