Yeah Tim I know exactly where you mean(next door) ,I spotted a 39 willys through the fence when I was 18,Im 34 now .I chopped the back off a nice rust free ek for a couch,still cant get over a windowless eh van that had no! rust.
still a few vintage bits up the back,and a ferrari replica,Sabre kit.
saw Three flathead 8s on the back of a truck.
Another spot was Kumbia Motors at Kumbia ,QLD
I bought a windowless FC van off the old guy (deceased now)can still remember knocking on his door ,he invited me in and it was an old place full of grandfather clocks,wall to wall,room to room.I freaked out all that ticking near made me crazy and he was asking me what I wanted the van for and what it was worth.
Long story short the van is under a field in Birkdale,and a lot of people made a shit load out of his clocks
