Yes, there is talk, but so far nothings happened. Its going to be a sad day for me and many locals if it does happen...Leroy has been there a long time and has treated me very well throughout the years, actually better in the last few years. I''ll  hate to see it happen but if it does I cant blame him cause I dont think he"ll ever get another shot like this...I also have a few prizes in mind but honestly I really dont need anymore complete cars.. but there is a few neat parts I could use yet. I've been able to go through my life with the thought of if there is something I need and Leroy has it I can usually get it and usually quite reasonable. I also am not looking forward to just not having a neat place to go and hang out. The last time I was up there, my son and I were removing the whole ass-end of a 55 chevy fourdoor, and when I looked around my son was gone... I finished loading up and started to drive towards the shop and then my son runs up and jumps in the pickup and says "Wow dad, there is some really neat stuff up here." It kinda hit me then that this is an experience that will prolly not be around for long especially for the next generation of motorheads. ...Weed

Its not gone yet, thats for sure, but its one of those things, just like all the other wrecking yards they are a dying breed, all those yuppie assholes that think the "eyesore" is worth getting rid of because its a VARMIT OR MOSQUITO haven or some shit, Nevermind they are trying to erase a part of american history.  just like what amenia Dave is going through, although thats a little different.
