terrain features in the pics would suggest NoCal/ Sierra Nevadas, besides that I'd have not a clue.

Yeah, once I make it big I intend to roll into NoCal with a fat wad of cash and buy up classics iron, along with a big barn to keep it all in. The climate is about "perfect" for preservation. Nice find. Russian river was actually a 3rd guess. You weren't too far from RPP !

^Is there an echo in here or are you talking to yourself?  I think solitary confinement might have damaged your brain. |

I love stumbling across places like this. A few years ago I was killing some time south of Grand Junction and accidentally found the Gateway Car Museum. I had no idea that place existed. Ended up killing a lot more time there than I planned |

I would love to get my mitts on a FC. I always thought those were cool. When I moved up to NH in 1995, I decided to take a back road excursion and see my new state. I jumped on RT 101W and found myself in the town of Marlborough, NH. Right on the main street was a guy that dealt exclusively in old Land Rovers. I was out that way last month and he is no longer there. Last edited by skinnyj; 06-29-2016 at 06:13 AM. |

I'd be happy just to be able to walk around and sit inside a few of the old vehicles and take lots of pics. It's amazing if you think about the age of these vehicles and far the technology has advanced within one generation of people.
