This property is already zoned for salvage, and it comes with a shop for restoration.
You are a hard worker and a fanatical about cars. You’ve worked hard for your money over the years, and maybe made some smart business deals. Now you have $1.45million to spend on an hypercar. Perhaps something from Ferrari. You might be able to find an Veyron that is slightly used, with the new Bugatti CHiron being all the rage.
This is a mistake. This five-acre parcel of land is available for sale in British Columbia, Canada. It is a peaceful, rural parcel with a stunning view of the Canadian Rockies. It boasts a restoration shop measuring 900 feet and a 1200 square foot steel building. It also includes over 300 cars, most of them vintage and awesome. Although most of the cars appear to be in less-than-stellar condition, that’s why there is a restoration shop.
According to Mike Hall, 60, is the current owner. His career as a rock-scaler and his long, thick hair make him a curious Rasta Blasta. He is away from his job for many months, and as the money accumulates, he buys cars. He estimates that there are about 340 properties, and that number is only rising.
You’ll see that this outdoor collection of automobiles is not what you might call concours. Hall also does restoration work, when he isn’t blasting rocks off the mountainsides. While some cars look a bit rough in these photos, there are many gems. Two-door Chevy Nomad wagons can be spotted by a keen eye, as well as a variety of vintage Mopar muscle and Sunbeams Hall hopes to restore one day.
Is it worth $1.5 Million? There have been no buyers for the listing since it was first posted several months ago. You can get $4,400 for each car if you subtract the sale price. While some cars are worth less than others, others are worth much more, including the value of the buildings and property. This could be the perfect vintage find for someone looking for an auto boneyard that is fully functional and has facilities for restoration.
