Nice, and ripe for an enforcement action.  Bet his neighbors hate that "pile of junk".  Not just CA, most places won't put up with that.  Even in rural Texas you'll see deed restrictions that say "no junkyards" and little and big towns all have "nuisance vehicle" ordinances.

Cool! I wonder if he's selling off this collection?

He's young enough looking that if he does, he'll have lotsa cash rather than die and leave the junkman to haul it all away for nothing.

Let's not rat him out, eh!

I think he has some great stuff. Many 390-4 speed cars! Alex looks like he has the same taste in cars as me and i'm sure many of us. I'd say he's a pretty cool fellow.

Be fun as hell to walk around in there and pick your next car.

I think this is the same guy who sells in Hemmings Motor News, think everything he has (almost everything since he's a Cyclone guy) is for sale.  Check out the 55 thru present Fords section and the parts adds afterward.  His name is Alex T- (& several more letters that I won't guess at without it in front of me :P)

I too bought some stuff from Alex a few years back.  He let me have a nice complete '64 Galaxie convertible power window setup for a reasonable price.
A careful study of failure will yield the ingredients for success.

I recently found out a friend of mine, another FE obsessed individual is a room mate of Alex'. I had asked him if he could run by a guys place for me to check out some Maverick parts, when I told him who had it. The answer was "Thats easy he's my room mate".
