Sad to see those cars just sitting there rusting away, especially that S(R?)-series.
Hope they go to good homes where at least some may be returned back to the condition they deserve to be in. |

Apart from the really old antique items, which really should be donated to a musesm, the rest should be sent straight to the tip, imagine the neighbours having to live next door to that site everyday. You can tell the auctioneer is only in it for the dollars, they've even listed a childs tonka truck, pathetic!
Its JUNK, How about "CLEAN UP AUSTRALIA" instead.

The Auction says "CLEARANCE' Sale. Usually when a farm/property has one of these it means that everything goes!! And an Auctioneer only there to make money?....nah.Really?

If its the same person, the auctioneer Martin Evans, also has an interest in a Variety Bash car, ironically a tank Fairlane with Clevo power, caled "Jaffa". Bit of a coincidence with all that Ford gear? Maybe. Martin was Major of nearby Kynton I believe also.

I was on the Variety Bash last year for the first time and he runs all the auctions for Variety along the way. It's great to watch him extract so much money from folks for a worthwhile cause. The tank Fairlane wagon he drives is an awesome car. Martins nickname on the Bash is "JAFA", and the car is orange too...hehe
