Kwai, Colton and I have stopped there twice over the years on parts gathering trips. I have a picture at home of Colton on top of that tank retriever.
However, look at it from his point of view. He is getting pretty darn old by now, that stuff sitting around hasn't moved in years and the cost of living isn't going down. It is like the last time we were there. I had a two page list of M35 Gasser parts I was looking for. I kept asking for stuff, he would say no and then finally. He said all of his Gasser REO stuff had been scrapped decades ago because nobody would buy it.
"This isn't UNICEF, if someday the UN gets into the automotive salvage business, then maybe $200 will get your car back....." He is running a business after all.
