Sunray bugs in Dade City FL used to be full of used VWs. Pete, Steve, and I spent several hours there during one trip to Bug Jam. There were hundreds of old VWs spread around the property. We were like kids in a candy store.

This year at Bug Jam, Clyde and I heard that Corky, the owner, had lost a zoning battle and everything had to go. Here is the article telling about it. What a loss of old German parts. Crying or Very sad

The neighbor who whined about it should be hung.

Its a real shame busy bodies cant mind their own bussiness. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder- There are so many shallow and people that cannot see beyound their noses. They should clear their land along with them!!!! Mad

Yep. Someone needs their ass kicked.

Like my Dad always used to say, "as long as I pay the taxes on this son of a bitch I'll do what I want here".

If I was 83 and had nothing to lose, I'd have a lot of fun with those jackasses and it would more than likely make CNN :-)

I agree that he should have kept the place more squared away.. That close to others "junk" gets the wrong kind of attention. To have that kind of stash and get away with it these days you have to be in the middle of no where.. even then if the EPA knows about it they can bust your balls...
