Junkyard Or Museum?

 Driving around one Sunday on the West Side, we spied an open gate in an opaque fence.  Looked like an auto junkyard, but I spied something interesting so of course we drove in, parked, and wandered around (nobody there to question us).  We soon realized this was no ordinary auto junkyard, but a collection of old cars and trucks lined up, often in a pattern.  This was a very curious and unknown auto museum!



Some old trucks...




Ah, the days of fins!


Classic Volkswagens...


A Jag...  can't believe this doesn't have some value...


A stereotyped spiderwebbed windshield, hate to have been in this crash!


I couldda taken  a million pics, this junkyard had so many old vehicles, what a trip!  So finally, from the 20's?, check out the wooden spoked wheels...


What a find!  I suspect if we ever went back, we'd fine the gate locked with no way to get in and explore more.  Whoever owns this place could charge admission, it's so cool!

(Update...  I think this is Rio's junkyard...  from this Facebook page).
