Dug These Out 20 Years Ago
Was a total of 12 cars and a ton of parts that had sat God knows how many years. What a job.

Were they way up in the hills up from Dulles?
I went there 24 years ago with Pete Klabo. May 1999 as I recall. VERY rugged location with a lot of cars lying about in the bush. Apart from the fact I thought I might get eaten by some sort of mountain lion or similar, it was a very interesting day.  Ian

This should help add some perspective and appreciation for those who hunt out the hard to find cars and parts and then catalog and store them for future sales.
It ain’t always easy, especially when dealing with cars so hidden by overgrown brush or with trees growing directly next to them or sometimes right through them.

20+ years ago Good Times
Boy can I relate to this,
We would leave on a Friday afternoon and not return until Sunday evening. It was a weekend event not just a picker's day trip. So many parts, so many years ago. Bob, Thanks for reminding me of some good memories, I hope yours were just as fun!

Looks like it was a lot of work? Is that a 63 Tempest next to Cammer in first pic?

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
