id love to walk around there. all those cars, and i see only one f-body. being in a largely evergreen forest probably helped those car. the needles, while being somewhat acidic, have almost no moisture to them when they drop, so theyre not adding to the decay of the cars.

most of them are gone, but theres still alot of good sheetmetal there, plus alot of solid bumpers, hoods, etc.

Im sure there are alot of parts that could be used for other projects and stuff. Like trim that is no longer available.
Does someone claim to own them or is all abandoned stuff ?

its private property. a member of our local NJ fbody club has been there once or twice. the guy is a real *******, and charges insane amounts for anything. even after you buy, he'll give you a hard time, yelling at you to get off his property. sounds like some half crazed weirdo.

also, it was noted that he drove most of the cars into there himself, and left them to die. meaning that somewhere in the 70s-80s or 90s, there were running/driving mustangs, etc. driven into the woods, and just left.

Damn that reminds me of the car grave yard in the movie "Wrong Turn" where the West Virginia imbreeders hunt people down kill and eat them then take their cars to their junkyard!
