As mentioned in Asheville, details sorted, FB event created. Saturday September 7, first weekend after Labor Day and earlier than haunt season kicks into gear. Can not determine if there will be time for another such event next year at same place. Property lease has been lost. Given immense amount of effort/money it will take to find another location and move everything, owner is heavily leaning towards crushing anything remaining.
----------------------------------------------------
After more than 30 years of collecting, this property will cease to exist within the next year. Sadly, an immense parts resource will be lost forever as the largest collection of its kind anywhere in the world will dissipate. 60+ hearses (plus a few ambulances and a couple limos) spanning 50 years from the '30s-'80s lie in destitute.
If you're within a day's drive and like professional vehicles, consider attending. Bring a bag lunch and Deep Woods Off. Add tools into the mix for even fairer parts prices when removing yourself. Take advantage of having spares for your coach before these all disappear. And if looking for a project, bring a trailer, as there are a handful of decent builders remaining. Heavy machinery to move units will be provided.
Coach, parts, and price questions in advance encouraged. The more prepared you are, the better of a day you'll have. Cross post as desired.
Exact location provided later to those who RSVP.
