izzo Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 parents in law bought a chunk of land up in warrenton oregon. its covered in blackberry bushes and trees. lots of downed trees. the brush is about 6ft high, and the blackberry bushes are around 8ft high. we thought, shit! Ok, well bring the chain saw, weed eater, machete and rent a billy goat. :lol: wrong! there is so much junk around there i can not even begin to explain how much. Piles and piles of scrap metal, garbage, plastics, glass. Here is a semi- short list of what we have found so far. And we found this after the property was purchased. A motorcycle, a couple washers/dryers, stoveS, refrigerators, 20 or so tires with rims, another washer, a Kawasaki motorcycle, an early 60s ford van, early 60s ford truck, 3 sheds, big enough to fit a datsun with room to work on it in. A camper (the ones that go in the bed of the truck). A Zimmer camper trailer, one of the really early models. They build a shed around it and someone lived in there. Found an August 1975 playboy. Found a couple hundred dollars in Kenya cash. About 10 dollars american. Lots of blue glass bottles, antique glass, and other misc items. Found a dead rat skeleton (kept that :D) Skeleton keys, bullets. Not sure what kind of bullets it doesn't say the caliber on the bottom like most of todays. Ill try and get a good pictures on here, one is kind of strange. It looks a bit bigger than a 22 bullet but the tip is like a hard see thru (green tint) and has little ball bearing things in it. Anyways, these pictures are of the first and second day. After the first two days we said fuck it and rented a john deere tractor with a bucket and a giant mower on the back. I did all the work with it clearing most of the shit out of there. Still a ton of work to do. More than i care to. Only xmas eve and xmas day off. This property has to get cleaned within 60 days. We are piling all the scrap into one pile, burning all the wood, and hauling all the garbage off to the dump. Still have 3 sheds to tear down, and the house. Plus all the garbage clean up. One of the new neighbors is going to come in and push all the brush off to a pile in the back of the property along with level the spot where the house is going for 700. He is also going to de-stump the entire site. If any of you would like to come and take away the scrap let me know, i been hearing its around 110 a ton right now. there should be a few tons at least there bottom few pics are pics of my tarded kitteh. Sleeps in the xmas tree Quote Link to comment

The next door neighbor is her niece. She verified that it was her cousins many years ago. He died tho, had aids and couldn't afford the medicine. This is back before there was really anything going on for it. He couldn't afford the medicine, was depressed. Turned the gas on in his little camper and let it go for 10-15 minutes then lit a cig. There was nothing but slivers left of the camper. Quote Link to comment

purple Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 I wounder what parts I could use from the truck. I want to see the Zimmer trailer. Quote Link to comment
slam_dat_sun Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 I wonder how much money you could get for that NObama money :lol: Quote Link to comment
izzo Posted December 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 I wounder what parts I could use from the truck. I want to see the Zimmer trailer. if that truck had the 352 i would have been tearing it out as we speak. Inline 6, same with the van. Here is the front of the Zimmer Trailer, its to the left in this picture. We are throwing some chains around the hitch on the truck and pulling down that shed tomorrow. Then hooking the trailer up to the truck and yanking it out. Truck should be able to handle it, its my father in laws. 1985 Ford F350 Quad cab 4x4, 460. Its not a dually either but should get er done :D They cut a small spot out of the side of it when they built the shed for an easy entrance. Dont think its savable. Hoping i can salvage the trailer and make my own datto hauler with it. Daniel, the way that retard is going ill be sitting on a fat stack of cash soon :lol: Quote Link to comment
slam_dat_sun Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 How is that ? I would like a FAT stack of cash . Quote Link to comment
izzo Posted December 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 the way obama is spending, sending is flying at light speed into the hole even worst then before. We have borrowed so much that we have pretty much taken capitol from everywhere. No where else can really lend the US more money as we have already borrowed most of what they had. Or so it seems. right now 75 Kenya dollars is like 1 dollar american. If it keeps up itll be reversed. 75 american dollars for 1 kenya.... It was mostly a sarcastic remark. Quote Link to comment
slam_dat_sun Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 Oh ha ha I get it, I got to get me a boot full of kenyan dollars :lol: Quote Link to comment
purple Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 My wife only wants an Airsteam for her Edsel, but I have been wanting a 50's Shasta with the little "wings" on the back. I don't see your trailer pics, and don't see the truck in any of those weeds pics. My 64 Ford has the Y block 292 with a granny 4 speed, but what I want are things like the stock radio,or steering wheel with the horn button. It'll have a 9" rear if it's a 1/2 ton so that is worth saving. Quote Link to comment

As far as the fords. on the truck i believe that the steering wheel is there. Horn button probably should be too. Looked like the gauge cluster was on the passenger floorboard. Not sure about the radio, ill check. Passenger door was locked. Van, gauge cluster was there. steering wheel too. Not sure about radio, doubt either one would be good/working. Truck was last tabbed in 1980. Not sure about the van. front of the zimmer back of the truck. Has some sort of canopy on it. If you look closely you can see the round tail light.

purple Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 Glad I don't have much to clean at the house I am buying. My eyes hurt now, just like those pictures you have to stare at for a while to see the image..... Quote Link to comment
izzo Posted December 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 Keep your eyes peeled Purple. Ill have some fresh pictures tomorrow and you wont have to stare at it at all :D Quote Link to comment
purple Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 I think I see the 57-60, 62-63 bed. Yes they skipped 61. The 62-63 cab is what I can use. My friend in Eureka can use the 57-60 parts. He had a parts truck that was so rusty the roof above the windshield was detatched. I took a pic of him pushing it up and waving out the hole.

Jester Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 Tim, If either of the RV's have gas powered light fixtures I WANT THEM. please. As many as you can pull off. Did I say please yet. LOL What are the two motorcycles? Any old Honda stuff? Thanks Quote Link to comment
MikeRL411 Posted December 22, 2009 Report Share Posted December 22, 2009 I would guess without seing them based on the plastic shroud over the shot that the cartridges are 32 rim fire, 32 Smith and Wesson or 38 caliber shot shells. Snake killers. Quote Link to comment

Not sure what year, Kawasaki tho. Engine looks complete minus the round coil deal that sits next to the brake pedal. Motor probly be good for a go kart :D Had to literally clear everything, wish i could get a better shot from the air to show the size. my camera phone just doesn't do justice to how much has been done :fu: Edited December 23, 2009 by h2theizzo Quote Link to comment
