    Must be nice to have that much space and the coins to take advantage of it. Congrats to Dan !!! That's quite the "little shed" he's going going up there !!! Is he going to put a lift in every stall so he can "stack" twice as many "toys" ???
    That last Caddy was a 57 two door hardtop !!! 57 was truly an "icon" year for GM !!! That Caddy being one of the "gems" !!! See you Saturday !!!

    Sad Bastard Olympic Gold Medal goes to the guy that can identify a Plymouth dash on 50 Dodge "plodge" Canada only car. Wow Scott, those are some epic non-transferable skills, not being harvested by any of the current AI systems. Cheers man. You pass the "not a robot" test forever!!

    The late older Brother use to take me to the wreckers when I was a kid (mid to late 1960's) got to play hooky from school (Mom didn't mind, as long as he brought me back with most limbs intact) He carried the parts, I had to carry his tool box, both hands, snivelling all the way (I'm pretty sure it was 250lbs), but I got a ride in his flat black 55 Chev or his buddy's grey & white 56 Chev 210 wagon. No, it didn't have any affect on me at all.

    This must be one of the coolest junkyards ever! When I was younger I might have set a tend up there and live there, only for the reason to admire the cars present. Even in this sad condition those Caddies still ooze Class and Beauty!

    Can you imagine the pride and joy of those first Caddy owners when they walked into the dealership and put down the $$$ for the convertible sitting on the showroom floor? Sad to see as the years went by they ended up in the condition that the are now.

    Hi guys! Short one today... Agent 7678 and I went to the local wrecker to get some wheels... I had to show you guys these Cadillacs... Unfortunately they couldn't find buyers last year at an estate sale, so they ended up here...
    Thanks so much to everyone who ordered a 1937 Chevy shirt! They are being shipped now! Cheers from me and Miss Frankers!
    See you on Saturday for the SOS...

      Scott when it comes to rare Dodge cars in Canada the 1951 Mayfair 2 door hard top is extremely rare. I have one and i've never seen another one in the 14 years of looking after i got mine. Lots of cornets and belvaderes, but no Mayfairs. They are a Canadian only car with a 218 cid flat head. The 218 is also Canadian only. One other thing Scott I have some Atlas tire inserts that are from the early 70's made of sheet metal that I would like to send to you. they are a set of 5 but i need a PO box number to send them

    Hello Scott, hope you’re all well. Was watching an old episode last night and you were talking about the elf stickers in the le car. Elf or “essence la France “, is a French oil company that worked with Renault on oils and fuel. I’d be surprised to see a Renault without the elf stickers. As I say, it was an old episode , probably worked it out by now. Any hoo, all the best from Liverpool

    Both painful and saddening to witness so many examples of the ‘Standard of the World’ in such a dismembered and disheveled state. But as a junkyard wanderer of many years myself, I know that ‘all good things come to their end’ and the same is true for these splendid machines. Thankful that you, Dan, and your fellow Agents are saving salvageable specimens one at a time while taking the rest of us along for the ride.

    I was at a car show over this past weekend, and I saw a _sweet_ black '55 Coupe DeVille. I spoke to the owner and told him to watch Thursday's CWM. Another cool Harley Earl design is that red 1958 or 89 GM pickup that's in among the Cadillacs. (I also watch Classic Truck Rescue on YT ... the guy has acres of 1955-59 "Task Force" and "Blue Chip" trucks on his property in Mollala WA.)
