While driving on I-80 across Iowa I looked up at this hill to see a bunch of old cars lined up on it. I was further surprised when even at 70mph in the opposite lane I could tell that a Pinto was among them. I had to go take a closer look.
Sure enough, when I got there I found a '77 Pinto. It's in rough shape, but from the few signs that were around, all the cars on the hill are for sale (not parts of cars, just whole cars). I didn't speak to anyone, so I don't know the asking price or any other information, you'd have to call to find that stuff out.
Anyway, I just thought I'd tell everyone about this little Pinto encounter, and show the pics I took of it.

Did you contact them to see how much asking prices for their cars are? It actually doesn't look THAT bad, but it could deffinitely use some touch up.
I remember seeing that place when I went through there about a month ago. If i wasnt in a hurry to get to KS (Winfield), I would have stopped.
How about the 1955 Studebaker?
I contacted no one, I have no idea about the asking prices on anything there.
Other than the Pinto and the Studebaker, there was an old Packard, a couple late 40/early 50 Buick Eights, a couple of trucks, a few other things I didn't recognize, and a Yugo.
