Approaching a "Musclecar hoarder",
 
This is my first post on here.
My son and I are lurkers. My dilema...
since 1993, I ve known of a Musclecar Hoarder". He is a family friend who worked in junkyards since the early 70's.
Today, he let me take pictures of some of the treasures.
heres what I found..
1969 Chevelle ss396/ auto convert. Garnet red he says. been sitting since 85. sad shape
1969 Camaro, same situation Frost green/ green int.
!969 Chevelle coupe 307/ auto also red/ blk int.
Numerous big blocks, including CE block 1969 vintage
How do I post pics here?
The blocks are 212/518?/289 cast. that I saw.
One block is IU? I think he said 427/alum vette block
he has 409/425 hp motor, 413 long ram
numerous t-10s. like I said, I have pics.
the cars are full of BBC heads.
he has all the cranks, and a half semi full of BBC parts and muscle car trim.

I should also add. When he was a kid, he talked his mother into buying a Nova 396/ 4 speed from Berger, in Grand Rapids.
He still has it. Says the Emblems were never put on it. Has orig title, and paperwork, of course, its in da mud too

skrail,I would like to see the stash if he would let anyone see them.Really like to see the Berger car.Sounds like alot of hoarders "gonna get to them one of these days".Being that I work there it would be a blast to have a Berger car with paperwork.If you want you can private message me.
Let me know.

I have no idea if hes wanting to sell
Last time he asked me to sell some E-bay stuff for him. He needed quick cash. Today he mentioned a Harley he wanted.
I should note...He lives in a 12X24 foot addition, actually, its a porch added to a large older chicken coop.
His electric is an extention cordd, ran from his parents, water same way, buried under ground, no hot water
wood stove for heat..theres an ol indian motorcycle and his Harley in there with him. He has quite an array of guns..eeek..Trusts no one!!! on disability. and hes 52 yrs old. Youd never know he is there, kinda modern day hermit. BUT, he knows what he has, and where it is. I l ltry to get more pics of his &quot; home&quot; . I plow his 2 track drive in the winter, hes jus tmy friend. If he chooses to sell, I ll let you all know first! Like UI said, my son and I read here every day. Someday, we'll have our dream 69 Camaro! Until then, I work in hopes of sending them to college

This sounds like a movie I believe we have all seen.

looks like they are all too far gone already ...

that Nova shell is the Berger car?

if so AND it ever gets sold I am sure it will come back to an auction in the future being a &quot;low mile one owner original&quot; ... just like the RG RS Z28 from a couple of years ago did ...
