You can see changes but some are still in the same spots after 9 years.

Re: OLD TIN (i dont think its to far gone)
we've seen pics from this place before can't remember if the question has been asked before (i know it's not a regular wrecking yard) is it or was it a wrecking yard or just an old guy that collected them and now just sells stuff for some pocket money
sometimes yor just better off shitting in yor hands and clapping

Yeah runs a bussiness there....not sure what...something to do with trucks and tractors. He is open every saturday morning between 9am and 12pm except if the weekend is a long weekend......i think it just for pocket money.

Re: OLD TIN (i dont think its to far gone)
went on another grave yard run on sat
as always it's great to come home with what you went there for
but on the other hand to laeve it all there not knowing what the future holds
after speaking to the old timer for about a hour hearing a few of his old stories from the past and how it all began
and his lifes challenges he has done well but his health isnt what it used to be and its showng
hes thinking its almost time to hang up his boots or in his case car parts
there was even a whisper about the crusher moving in
it will be a sad day when it comes
