1st Gen and other musclecar graveyard

[DRJDVM's '69]

I went down to LA this Friday to do a photoshoot of my car for Super Chevy magazine (thats another post later on when the issue comes out around June Thanks Steve Rupp for sending them my way....). The theme for the issue is going to be something along the lines of finding old musclecars in fields and salvage yards, so the photographer set up the shoot in a local salvage yard that had some old musclecars in it.

The "day to day" side of the yard was typical crap, but this guy had alot of nice cars just sitting there rotting !!! Take a look at the pictures..... yes thats about 18 1st gen camaros....including SS, RS, Z28's and convertibles !!!! He has about 10 2nd gen camaros.....again including some Z28's, SS and RS cars.... corvettes, a Mach 1 Mustang, GTO, Formula Firebird, El Caminos, a 56 Chevy wagon, early mustang coupes, etc etc etc

NONE OF THE STUFF IS FOR SALE....NONE OF IT !!!

And most its been sitting there for 20 years!!! He doesnt even want any of his info in the magazine because he doesnt want people calling or harassing him to sell any of it. Its such a waste of some cars with real potential.... Now granted some of them are probably rotted more than most guys want but at first look most of them are very salvageable.

It was the typical.... they're worth some much money and I'm gonna restore them and sell them blah blah blah....... if it hasnt happened in 20 years its not gonna happen !!!

Such a shame....
