From the Deep Deep South out in left field.  There are no stupid questions.  There are however stupid people asking questions.  🤣, this includes me.  😉 Hawaii.

Geez, I'll say. That's quite a hoard of vehicles.

Looks like he has a crew restoring a bunch at the same time.

He at least has saved a lot of cars from cruel early deaths. He's getting old, there will be an auction, and a lot of stuff will be bought for restoration. My 1st car is at 2:50. What kills me is at 14:36 when he very casually says Mystery engine. I about fell over!
No trees were harmed by the conveyance of this message, but a lot of electrons were seriously disturbed.

Looks like he'll be busy selling the finished vehicles off with the exception of the ones for his collection and also keep a couple of teams restoring different cars at the same time. :shocked:

Located at 1555 Dome Rock Road, Quartzsite AZ if anybody wants to take a look on Google Maps etc. Airport’s on the other side of the highway.  The owner appears to be a ‘character’ as you might expect, ‘slightly’ unpopular with some in the area or so it appears  :grin:

Looked it up using the plane’s registration info.
