Running low on abandoned Jeep pics or just picking up another hobby?

^^^ I wondered how long it would be for more folks to find that truck. It is near me, and IS NOT FOR SALE. The owner is a cool guy, and has an impressive collection of cars parked alongside the highway. But he will not sell anything, just wants them to sit there and look good. Oh well.
Lots of good photo fodder along that stretch of highway. That is a neat one, for sure.

I bought a 21 window that was "not for sale" once. Tried a bunch of times, left my phone number a few times. I ended up yelling a price at him while I was walking back out to my car. A little while after that he apparently wanted to buy into some kind of high-stakes card tournament and he called me. He was 3 hours away from me, too. Never know... |

True, but the difference here is the paltry sum he could get for any one of those hundreds of cars is nothing compared to his net worth. This is his Hot Wheels collection.

I imagine somewhere in Pennsylvania, the "Maltby Drug Store" bug at 1:01 shows an address of Swoyersville PA.
