Yea, the satellite pic looks like cars with green mold taking over. You're actually looking at the cars from above through the foliage of the tree obscuring the car from view. It's not green mold. OK George. Here's reality. You don't want to pay to have the cars dismantled and you want them gone. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) George is in business for the love of the 914 but he needs to make money at it as well. Properly dismantling 200 cars at 10 hours each and $20/hour (because you need someone that has some skills) would cost about $40,000. That doesn't include deforestation time. After they are dismantled, he wouldn't have the room to store the parts in the current AA location. It's not a worthwhile investment. You couldn't have 20-30 914World members descend on the site because every one of them would be looking for the best condition 914 to leave with. Record all of the VINs. Pull out the rollers and put them on eBay with a starting bid of $100. Gather any obvious parts on what's left. Crush the rest. |
