Uh you mean this guy...... well I heard voices..... build it and they will come..... I did and the only ones who came were code enforcement..... LOL

I have always said come we'll give the nickle tour and only charge a quarter.

No he(we) doesn't have 100s, 100 ok but not hundreds that would be crazy. In my defense the salavage yard calls and says you buy or we crush it. Once they are crushed they are gone.

The collection is ONLY about 40 cars the rest are parts or projects for someone else just bring $$

I have stopped here a couple times. The guy is really nice. He use to rent out rx7's since it got to expensive he rents and races (I think wwscc.org type racing) MX5's now. He may still race his rx'7 from time to time. He does rebuild rx7 engines and seems to have some new rotor housing that are not made anymore supposedly (supposedly because I didn't fact check this, just something he told me). He did help me out in a bind, I had a bad knuckle with a ton of play and most places wanted 1500 to replace. he did it for around 250.

I bought a radiator from him and have picked his brain several times. VERY old school mentality. He rents out race cars. Miata and FB heavy. A little FC in there.

I went there this past weekend! I was in the Seattle area for a wedding and made a pit stop there to check it out. Jeff is a pretty cool guy. He has a ton of FBs along with a few FCs. Got his card and talked about getting some of the items I "need."
