Title: Alladins cave! Post by: lunatic on December 23, 2006, 01:56:38 PM Just came across a link to this on ebay. Could spend the rest of my life raking through that lot! ;D http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=170060842285
Title: Re: Alladins cave! Post by: trikerpete on December 23, 2006, 03:44:12 PM WARNING DO NOT LOOK UNLESS YOU HAVE AN HOUR OR SO TO SPARE FOR A "QUICK SCROLL" THROUGH THE ITEMS
OOOHHHHHHHHH s**t :o :o :o :o :o He sure has got a few bits, its amazing how you just put a couple of bits down and they act like magnets for a few more ::) It seems every available space in the house/shed has been used for storage, even the fridge. Have you noticed the "Hand" in several of the photos? looks like this guy has even buried his family under spare parts. I dont think Chrissie will ever need to tell me again about keeping a few parts incase they may come in handy ;D I did email him for price of P & P to UK ::) ;D Title: Re: Alladins cave! Post by: lunatic on December 23, 2006, 05:49:00 PM Oops, put this in the wrong section! ::)
The carbs in the fridge did make me laugh! :D Title: Re: Alladins cave! Post by: Manky Monkey on December 23, 2006, 07:28:56 PM Did I read that price right? -One & a half MILLION?!
A stunning collection though. I'd like the ambulance/police car half buried in the brambles please. How do you amass a hoard like that? Amazing. Title: Re: Alladins cave! Post by: klogan45 on December 23, 2006, 08:27:58 PM Jesus H christ
Title: Re: Alladins cave! Post by: Manky Monkey on December 23, 2006, 08:34:29 PM Someone should buy that, including his house, & preserve it as an automotive museum exactly as it is. Wonder what his neighbours think of him?

Title: Re: Alladins cave! Post by: triker-taz on December 24, 2006, 01:23:47 AM I likes the tractor.. ;D
Title: Re: Alladins cave! Post by: Manky Monkey on December 24, 2006, 09:42:11 AM Yeah, that caught my eye too.
Title: Re: Alladins cave! Post by: lunatic on December 24, 2006, 01:23:18 PM I love the fact that the land all comes free with all the cars! It could take years just finding out whats there. I wonder if you get the dogs?
I think the tractor is a monster hot rod. Model T perhaps? Title: Re: Alladins cave! Post by: brock on December 24, 2006, 05:04:29 PM ..not sure about "T", the shell looks a lot like the '33 Plymouth that we run.
I have got some paint questions, mind if I Email you ? Steve Title: Re: Alladins cave! Post by: lunatic on December 24, 2006, 05:18:10 PM Yeah no problem mate. Might take a day or two to get back to you though.
Your right, Ive changed my mind on it being a tall T. Could be a Plymouth like yours, thats why I recognise it. Title: Re: Alladins cave! Post by: panthershaun on December 28, 2006, 08:40:05 AM I wouldn't mind this ;D ;D
Title: Re: Alladins cave! Post by: Manky Monkey on December 28, 2006, 12:19:39 PM Amazing how that's sunk into the ground like that -looks almost like it's been dug in.
Title: Re: Alladins cave! Post by: Manky Monkey on December 28, 2006, 12:29:46 PM Check the Valley Gas speed shop bit in the Rally/Show Photos or Miscellaneous sections Shaun.
This pick up's a fibreglass replica. It was used as set decoration in "Who Killed Roger Rabbit" & had one side completely shaved off as it was stood against a wall. Now fully rebuilt & sporting a diesel engine, it was driven to Portugal & back last year. Title: Re: Alladins cave! Post by: panthershaun on December 28, 2006, 08:01:47 PM :o :o :o :o I like that ;D ;D ;D ;D
Title: Re: Alladins cave! Post by: Manky Monkey on December 28, 2006, 09:49:00 PM Give 'em a ring & ask if it's for sale.
Title: Re: Alladins cave! Post by: panthershaun on December 28, 2006, 10:38:05 PM No I must not :-\ :-\ :-\ :-\ anyway its not steel and I can't work with fiberglass :-[ :-[ :-[
Title: Re: Alladins cave! Post by: Urban Terrorist on December 30, 2006, 09:00:21 AM Those dodge chargers and the challenger ;D ;D
I'd love that place!!! But!! i can't go to the states and I ain't got £765,798 to buy it!! :( Title: Re: Alladins cave! Post by: Manky Monkey on December 30, 2006, 10:50:45 AM Yeah, that's where the plan falls down a bit doesn't it. I'd be happy with just one of those motors. Any one would do. Bet they're in pretty poor shape though.
