Salvage Yard Clearout

[gregajo]

Hi All, Spotted this add in craigslist this week. A guy named Vince inherited his brother's salvage yard just south of Ocala Florida. He is trying to get rid of everything. Went to check it out. There must be a 1000 bikes that have been sitting out in this yard for many years (all Jap bikes). There are still some usable frames and engine cases. Cheers.

Re: Salvage Yard Clearout

Could you post the address or info? I'm local and would check it out.

Any idea where this yard is, or if its still open?

The site was cleared at the end of September.

Dang. Hope you scored some good finds!

Actually the only thing of any value there were frames (although most were rotted pretty bad). I have never seen so much rotted bike frames in my life! A real shame.

We found the same situation in a West Virginia yard a few years ago. Hundreds of 70's 80's Japanese motorcycles left out in the weather for 20-25 years.....shame really.
