This will make you sad....

I stole this from the 48/60 forum, there are some very desirable vehicles rusted/rusting away.
So far I only made it thru the first couple of pages:

I like most of the ones I`ve seen so far but they`re too far gone with rust and missing parts.
At one time my yard was abit like this one but on a much smaller scale, only about 50-60 vehicles.

I'm assuming most of your yard collection were Ford trucks and cars...any other makes? Were they mostly Ford cars and trucks from the '50's and '60's ?

Did you sell most of them off to other collectors ?

Any that got away that you still wished you had ?

Except for the collection of Caddies a friend had out here the rest were always Fords though most weren`t in collectible condition. Afew keepers were a 55 Crown Victoria, some 56 Fairlanes 2 dr ht, 57 Ford convertible and tons of 50`s F100`s & 60`s Mustangs and a 61 T-Bird convertible.
