Great job of photographing the cars, however it's rather sad seeing them deteriorate like this when many of them could be restored or rodded. That 40's vintage Willys coupe with a tree growing through the windshield would make one fine Gasser recreation!

I had no clue there was such a place besides automobile junk yards but that is no junkyard. Thank you for sharing your photos. I shoot a lot of landscapes living in Montana, you have spark my creative side and next time I head east I will have to check Old Car City. My problem is that my family will have to drag me away.

I have owned a few similar models and it pains me to see those vehicles left to rust away in the weeds. My boys (as teenagers) would drive my un-restored Cadillac Limo to their jobs in Maryland. I never had the money to do a restoration and parted with the Limo and two Austin Healeys before they disintegrated in my leaky roof, metal eating 30' X 120' former chicken coop. Half of the building collapsed burying a myriad of old artifacts that I had good intentions for. The second floor concrete slabs destroyed everything. I am still digging it out, but at 85 am having slow going.

Thanks for taking a look...the Willy's is considered the iconic photo subject of OCC.

I've seen photos enlarged and for sale in Buckee's Travel Stop that look like maybe you discovered their source. Yours are quite nice.
