OK, who's in?!

Five acres of land – with more than 300 cars included – for sale in B.C.

Could probably make most of the 1.4m back, right?   ;D

Wow, all nice and neat too.  Not sure about the environmental liability a site like that would have.

I have driven by it many times, was set up as a sort of museum for awhile.  I did not know it went so far back.

Zoned as wrecking yard, no worries. Buy it and maintain the collection or add more of your own.

I've visited that museum a few years back.

There are a few Mopars in there worth saving.  :)

...and a Cutlass convertible...a 2 door Chevy wagon...a couple of Buick bubble tops...that Ford Unibody...and...and...so many more.

I know it's a long shot, but Lotto Max maybe today?  ???  That place is an amusement park for men (and women if any of them like rusty old cars...gotta be a few out there, right?).  Kids can go climb the ropes at one of those swinging from the trees places...I'll be at the "junk yard".  Forever.

Buy it and invite Roadkill to come film a show.  They must assemble a car from the junkyard, and drive it back to California.

The museum is still there. It's actually next door. This guy's collection is so big, he has to store a few on the museums property (so it looks like it's all one big lot)

I think the museum closed for a brief period of time then re-opened.
