Well on my way to becoming that eccentric old man in every town.(crazy as a s#@thouse rat) With a yard full of desireable old vehicles that tells you, Sorry they're not for sale..... Someday I'm going to fix them.

My guess would be central California. They used to have the ice houses there for the lettuce crops. And other stuff of course. There are several places there that are that flat. Not something you would expect. LOL Mike

My guess would be our neighbors to the north. Way to many Fargos.

i used that link you provided but it stuck me right i n the middle of an album

i cleaned up the link,so it takes you right to the front page of that album.
i tried blowing up some of the pics,Specifically to try to read any of the Signs on the Inside wall,behind those trucks,look closely.
i couldnt get enough resolution to figure it out tho.
the outside background looks like kansas,just a guess on my part.

im assuming the fella who took these pics knows whats up with them,and if any are for sale?

funny,most people would go nuts if those were hemicars,yet id rather have a few of those trucks shown.
thanks for providing the drool factor lol!
cheers,Rob

The album was created by " George McKovich"

Main Album Page: http://imageevent.com/idsnowman

I looked at he Chrysler 300 C restoration page and the car when completed looks like it was shown in Logan UT

The album looks like it was created in July 2008

So far that is all I've come up with.

The photos of the 58 sweptside have Idaho plates.
Might not even be all his vehicles.
The Manitoba plates seen are from 71.You don't keep the same plate from your first issue.
No matter which side of the border that truck collection is ,it is still very cool.

I noticed when I clicked on the pic I wanted to see, it opened it up in a new window of its own. At the bottom of the picture are the options to see a large or original image. Click on original, they are huge( you will have to scroll to see it all) and you can make out a lot of details.

that was amazing!! makes most of us look like novice collectors! from the looks of the pics, it appears that kids or just A-holes have smashed a bunch of windows outa the trucks. i love those late fifties style swept's with the fins, to bad some of them are so rusty.

I'd love to have one of those Studes, too!

He's got a lot of really good stuff there! Job-Rated trucks, Lifestyle trucks, Power Giants, Swepties, plus that black CSS backed against the loading dock in picture #130, a Dakota ragtop, even a couple of old Chevys that look good, too!

If you like old Mopar concept cars, check out his cool cars album. Heck check out the panels one to see the repair he did to a fenderwell on one of his trucks.
This guy has got to be known, just not in this cirle. Anyone poked around the Powerwagon page to see if he is on there? He seems to like the 50's stuff the most judging by his albums.
He also has this listed as contact info on the Parts for sale album- ebay@collectorsautoparts.com.
Someone with more time and money can follow up with this. Good Luck!!


edit:
CHECK OUT HIS 58 FARGO SWEPTSIDE ALBUM!!!!!!!!!!! I want to know where he got reproduction trim pieces or who did the retoration on some items. This guy is dyed in the wool Dodge for sure! :clap :clap :clap :clap :clap
