Talk about New Old Stock!

If you goto the auctioneers site and look at the list, wow, there is a ton of stuff there. Can't imagine what those prices are going to be.

Too bad so many of those untitled cars are now just junk.
That guy hap-hazardly parked them all over and never took care of them. Many were parked with the keys in them. There is a link on the internet with a SS396 Chevelle that a tree fell on and broke the back window out of, tree not removed. Car was unsold with window sticker in it.

One poster states to be local and tried to buy stuff off the owner for 30 years but to no avail.
In ways that dealer owner sounds like a piece of work.

Here is a link with GPS coordinates that shows them just off the road:

Would like to see pics of all the cars/trucks.
Guy even had a '70s C70 with 427, 5+2 with no miles

I am missing the economics of this whole thing , how can this guy afford to eat the cost of just parking new vehicles that do not sell ?

One would have to think the markup on the sold units was sufficient enough to cover the cost.
He did have low overhead, only one paid employee and I'd be willing to bet he specialized in sales and not service.
