What is so confusing to me is she has plenty of money to get a few if not more of them restored. But I'm going to do my best to save a couple of them and let them live again.

I would think getting tires that hold air under any of them, then listing them for sale would be a lot easier than picking and parting. Heck, scrap value alone would mean most of these are worth at least a grand, so if she ebayed them with a no reserve, $2000 starting price, you could watch where they go from there. With 60 cars at just $2k, she could raise $120k without even trying. Given the completeness of some of these, chances are at least a few would go for double that for their pieces and parts. However, unless she is into it, I'd avoid parting them out on her own. Sell em whole, let the prices fall where they may.

Once i get down there and see exactly what i'll be working with. We're going to come up with a game plan. I told her there is a few different ways we can go about selling them since she think their all just junk...:confused59: I'm trying to help her understand that there are some peices on those cars that are hard to find, but selling them is definately something I'm going to do for her.

Ok guys, Now that I'm settled into our new place in Southern IL. I'm headed to my friends farm to get more intel on all these classics she has. Besides getting VIN's and taking pictures is there anything else I should look for or document?

This will be my first trip to the farm this weekend. You better bet I will be going in that barn to scope it out. I've got a few pictures of a couple corners of the barn and it's all motors & transmissions laying around.
