Re: Everyone loves the "My trip to the salvage yard" stories.
I forgot to mention, but I have more pics showing cars like the ones in the third pic above that are buried up to the door handles. In the picture, you can see in the background that there is a plowed field with a hill behind them. My theory is that when it rains, a lot of this dirt gets washed down the hill. There are about 10 cars that are serving as erosion control. It looks like Mike's cars are doing his neighbor a favor. Obviously the field needs to be terraced to control this better. The "erosion control" cars will not last very long like this... I will post a few more as time allows... Have you fellas had enough yet?

Re: Everyone loves the "My trip to the salvage yard" stories.
i have seen quite a few vehicles sunk down to the frame or to where i have to kick away some dirt to open the doors, but to the door handles? that is really tough on cars. but i bet some of those burried parts are still plenty salvagale

Re: Everyone loves the "My trip to the salvage yard" stories.
Keep the pics coming! It would be cool just to walk around there one day and take pics. I would probably take a few souveniors to.
