Celina 2001 Swim In From: "Marc Schlemmer" ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ Message: 1 Date: Tue, 06 Mar 2001 15:29:03 -0000 From: ""Cap'n" John" Subject: #6 - What a place! Wow! I can honestly say that I have never seen anyone's yard (yes, this is their yard) with a more eclectic collection of stuff. Just for starters she had everything from military equipment, 100+ antique farm implements, a Sicorsky helicopter, a missle, a pile of probably 150 Jap bikes, a flatbed with 25 or so Cushmans to about 50+ airplanes in various states of disrepair to easilly over 300 cars. There were even old bombs leaning up against the shed! They gave me a vintage Coke machine in the deal too. Once I get the Amphi (1962) home I will be disassembling her. No drive train and most of the interior parts are gone. The engine cover, one door and hood are nothing short of perfect! The passenger side is squished. Take a look at the pics in the file section.

I really enjoyed the photos you put in the files, I was hoping to find the Cushmans and the Coke machine to see what they looked like. Looks like the Amphi may have some good parts as well. If you have any more shots, please post them. Marty --- In amphicar-lovers@y..., ""Cap'n" John" wrote: > Wow!

It is similar to http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll? ViewItem&item=1119440664&r=0&t=0&showTutorial=0&ed=984359374&indexURL= 0&rd=1 (eBay item #1119440664) Next time I go out there, I'll get some pics of the Cushmans for ya. They had a huge fire a year ago, there were 150 Harleys in the hangar when it went up. OUCH! That hurt.
