Scroll down to see pics. Sale is Friday and Saturday. Set looks kinda rough. Load the set into the 66 Chrysler wagon. Rob - if we keep going to sales on Saturday, our houses will look like this in 20 years! CLICK HERE TO GO TO estatesale_gary's LINK |

That place looks some nasty. I'd need to shower after running through a place like that. I DREAM of places like this! The old biddies who never threw anything away, appliances and all. You have no idea the fun stuff you can find when digging around in that junk. Hopefully someone here is able to save this set. Turquoise always sparks an interest ;-) Ben |

Ben, I agree sales like that are so much fun and you just never know what is hiding in some box. There is just something about Turquoise that makes you feel good. Wish that was a color they would bring back. |

That's a '66 Chrysler Town & Country wagon - a real land yacht! I hope someone gets that who will appreciate it. It even has a tilt/telescope steering wheel! |

I'm sure a lot was nasty, but you can clean/fix up nasty. I remember one time coming home with an old typing table I got for a dollar. My roommate's girlfriend asked if I was on the way to the junkyard with it. It looked bad, just, dirt, etc. A good cleaning, sanding, and painting. It looked brand new. I still use it in my house. I just love a project, but that's me. I do agree that you do need a shower when you leave a place like that, however sometimes there are treasures to be found (as the Zenith, Chrysler, and Kenmore's show). |
