  10. I took those photos around 1974 or so. Here is the lot today. Sort of a triangle lot. It is between Pacific Coast Highway and the railroad tracks. IMG_5841 (2).JPG There are still vehicles there, but none of the oldies I photographed.

    Here's another old tin woodie. I passed this one a while back. It was on old rt. US -11. It was at a old Motel, that has turn into a used auto parts store. { junkyard} It was pretty rough. So it probably just got crushed. But ya can't save them all. SAD :( 1200.jpg 1196.jpg 1197.jpg 1198.jpg

  25. The '55 Ford on the barn roof is amazing. They even modified the roof to make a flat spot for it to sit on. Somebody apparently had more money than sense.

  27. Here's a couple finds. This pickup is sitting outside the old garage. But it's what's on the inside, that is really cool. A very rare Willy's sedan delivery. The front sheetmeal was also there. But sorry, it was very dark, and tight to get very good photos. Ron.... 20190311_140010.jpeg 20190530_111928.jpeg 20190530_111943.jpeg 20190530_112200.jpeg 20190530_112211.jpeg
