Yeah they do have some sweet cars and yeah the guy is a complete asshole. I think the JnJ cigar guy is the biggest a-hole of them all. Skyway guys are nice unless you catch em on a bad day and the a-able guys are always cool. The one guy at able was nice enough to get my doors unlocked since I locked my keys in my car.

Early spring, as soon as the weather is nice, is the only time to go there. You can’t even see some of the cars through the brush! Plus the usual attack bees haven’t made homes in the cars yet. Decent prices and they let you walk around. I once scored a full set of Jetta GLI Trophy Recaro seats for $75.🆒 It’s fun to just wander around to look at the wierd imports that haven’t been seen on the roads around here in decades.

Skyway used to be awesome, you could just go and mill aroudn for an hour or 2 and they wouldnt’ care, they also had a lot of 60’s stuff, havn’t been there in 10 years so I don’t know how it is now. The tall skinny dude used to be a prick, the dude that used to look like the guitar player for Blue Oyster Cult (Buck Darma) was cool.

Last time I was there I heard a huge smash from a window exploding, and I looked over to see some guys looking guilty.🤣 No wonder insurance is so high. Nothing like going there in the winter- walking on a sheet of ice with pieces of jagged rusty metal sticking up from the ground, holding onto rusty cars hoping not to fall.
