    I ran across this fairly recent utube posting which is pretty unbelievable.
    The guy appears to appears have 100s of 1940s and later cars in his "collection".
    search for:
    "Desert Find of a Lifetime"


    I did a HAMB search and found an old thread where a few folks were aware of the place but had no details.

    Looks like it is next to the airport based on satellite map of Quartzsite, Arizona.

    Anyone been there or dealt with the owner?

  2. I've stood and looked through the fence on a Sunday, a few months ago. Lots of interesting stuff, though most of them look like spray bomb restorations. His prices seem a bit optimistic

    Back in the mid '70's there were quite a few A's and T's on a lot on the north side of the 10 in Quartsite. You could only see them if you were westbound and stopped to check them out a few times. If I knew then what I know now I would've become a hoarder......

    Looks like it will be the site of a auction one of these days before long. Lots of cool stuff there in probably fantastic condition due to the dry desert.
