back in the late 50's or early 60's i was in brevard n.c. working as a helper to a guy that worked for my father. we saw a chevy dealer with a junk yard out back. we walked in to look around and were quickly told nothing was for sale and to leave. i later heard rumors that the chevy dealer would take a ford in on trade and just put them out back. he had made plenty of money and wasn't interested in selling the fords. i didn't know much about cars at that time, but i'm pretty sure they were mostly a's. they were just stacked on top of each other three and four deep. they are long gone now, but what a curiosity. oh! for a time machine!
