speedytriple Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 I want the land when you get all that scrap off it. LOL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad324 Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 I would build an awesome fort on that land using all those cars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connie14 Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 I can't believe they didn't scrap most of them a few years ago. The price for scrap steel had escalated in a relatively short period of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turnone Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 Very few thing in Idaho worth 3 million. This ain't one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snot Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 (edited) Wonder what kind if any EPA regulations you need to go through. Unless everything was received dry or drained prior to "storage" it could be a nightmare. Edited February 23, 2014 by snot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAC Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 Wonder what kind if any EPA regulations you need to go through.

scottb Posted February 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 So a few issues right up front,-getting the vehicles out of there- the soil / land once the cars are removed-no fence around the property. Access directly from the road. So, now that 500,000 people know about this, good luck on keeping people off the property. I will have to look back and see how that one dealership auction made out, with those "new " cars from the 50's and 60's with like 10 miles on them sitting in the owners back yard.

Gump Posted February 24, 2014 Report Share Posted February 24, 2014 If the 8000 is accurate and they are complete cars, that's only about $1,600,000 in scrap. Toooo much work..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
