An other case of a stubborn person who would not yield and a collection of cars that has little use other than to be crushed and melted down.

So very sad that what could have been a gold mine for car folks turned into a rust pit.

At least they don't rust as fast in the Oklahoma & Kansas region. I've seen Model Ts that set out for 50 years and they were still restorable. Crusty as hell but restorable.

I have the frames and engines of a 37 coupe and 46 Merc. Old man next farm wouldn't sell them to me when I was in HS. He drug them back into an Ohio woods. When he died, a nephew gave them to me, but nothing left but the heavy iron .......

Someone will overpay for them, life goes on, it has no effect on the cars I own or my personal enjoyment of the hobby. Bob

Source is "Fox News". Not sure I can believe any of that.

Dont read Fox often, but know folks that do. Need to know what they are hearing/believing. BUT, this is getting close to politics and religion, and I dont wanna go there.

As far as high prices and affect on the hobby, dont know or care. Still would enjoy a day in that lot!!!!
