WARNING DO NOT LOOK UNLESS YOU HAVE AN HOUR OR SO TO SPARE FOR A "QUICK SCROLL" THROUGH THE ITEMS

OOOHHHHHHHHH s**t Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked
 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 Roll Eyes

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 Grin

I did email him for price of P & P to UK Roll Eyes Grin

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.

Someone should buy that, including his house, & preserve it as an automotive museum exactly as it is. Wonder what his neighbours think of him?

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?

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.
