Car consignment shop
 
5 Attachment(s)
My Wife and I have been by it 10 times or so, but never stopped.
This is a Store called, "California Play Toys".
It is right off Interstate 10 in Yuciapa Ca.
They sell Consigned Hot Rod/Muscle/Collector Vehicles.
Not to mention all the Memerobilia Inside for Sale.
A very cool place, and a great Store to get that "Project" to work on.
Most of the Vehicles we saw were "50 Footers", that would rate about a 7 on a 10 Scale. No Garbage, and Good Bones!
Lots of "Chips" in the paint, but some good lookers inside.
Here are some pics.....

Nice. I like that they are in good but not great show worthy condition. You still have room to put your own touches on it. We have a place like this in the town over, but you can't find anything under 40K. All matching numbers cars which is a feature I could really care less about. How were the prices at this place?

The prices wernt posted on any except a few cars.
For example there were (2) 69 Camaros and they were $32K and $49K respectivley. The Turquoise 55 Chevy had been on the Front Cover of some Hot odding Magazine, but there was no price listed on that one.

Heres their Website (still under construction),
and they have a Face Book Page too.

Too Much Stuff,
My Wife was DRAWN to that one too, but even SHE said it was way beyond what she would take on. We talked about it, and agreed it would take about $10K (not including a New Top) just to bring it up to that "50 Footer Appearance" I refered to in my 1st post.

70cst,
Your welcome. We stopped by here on the way back from a Craig's List Find in Redlands, and it was the Highlight of our day. My Wife has restored a 71 Camaro and in our 23 years together, have shown many Cars/Motorcycles. She is my Soul Mate and my Designer when it comes to Paint Schemes, Color, Interiors.

There was one in Petaluma (right off the 101) Freeway in Sonoma Country, (still about a 4 hour drive from you)>It was there for about 15 years.
Finally went out of business about 5 years ago. Prime Real Estate. The Building & Property are going for 1.3 Million.:devil:
