Anyone ever see the Citron Factory outside of Paris, they have the little cars stacked three high, like a wall. Someone could do that with 914's.

Looks like a hoarder had to clear out space. Put shinny paint on the worst ones. God only knows what’s under the paint. Looks pretty but if they didn’t even mask off buyer beware.
I know some poor prospect will buy with the idea of driving getting a deal only to find out that it was much more work. Hopefully these don’t just wind up being scrap. |

Some Horder hoping to get big money after seeing the stupid money that people are paying at the auctions for crap cars.
Copart doesn't do just insurance cars, they do normal auctions also for "rare" or connector cars/trucks |

Can you imagine the parts stash that is/was generated by the stripping of theses cars! It must be out there somewhere. Crazy

Vin numbers need to be mined and added to database if not already there.

I wouldn't trust these VIN numbers, 4742905802 has a 75 front bumper (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blink.gif) It's a shame, looks like a cinnamon interior.

That was always a macabre game to play at the auction, "is that blood?" Some cars were hard to look at. I remember a Jeep that look like it went under the back of a tractor trailer, it ground it flat to the rollbar, hood, windshield, seats. There was a 12 pack of beer in the back, I told one of the auction guys they should salvage the beer, he said, "Nope, that's the Devil's beer!" |

During flooding sewage and the floodwater get mixed. |
