I have not been there but have spoken to a few people who have. This is not meant as a slam, but do not expect anywhere near giveaway prices.

Will not take as a  slam. Just wondering if anyone has dealt with this place ,before i go through. I expect to pay , as i don"t think anyone has ever been to a give away business. if someone has let me know.I"ve been through a lot of places , i expect to pay fair value. A lot of times the owners demeaner stops me from buying parts or cars, not the price.

I was there several years back. He's quite selective on what "parts" are for sale. He wants to sell complete project cars.

There are definitely some cool cars and parts there.

For the geopgraphically challenged where is Douglas MB in relation to say
Brandon, Portage La Prairie or Winnipeg?

If anyone is going there can you document what you see?

I was there a few years back.What he calls clean cars was kind of a bad joke.As far as the beaumont stuff went-there wasn't much to speak about at all.Cars were either hit extremely hard from accidents or rusty turds.The owner of the place apparently showed up at the Barrie,Ont. flea market with an extremely rotten 67 malibu-hauled all the way from Douglas,Mb.and tryed to tell everyone it was a good solid car.Well I saw that car at a meet in Winnipeg.I don't think the car had a panel that wasn't in need of replacing.So I wouldn't get too excited about the cars that are there.

I'm looking for a '67 Beaumont project car, those Beaumonts aren't worth looking at for the $$ he's asking. There's nothing left of them. I looked at them this past summer. I live in Brandon, as in the last post, its about 20 minutes east of Brandon. Anyone know where there's a '67 project car for sale?

might be able to get you this for between $1500-$2000, it has a once rebuilt small block and a four speed, has a nice hood stored, interior is extremely poor and incorrect (high back buckets/65 impala rear seat) the body actually isn't that bad

I would prefer a fairly complete car, but I'm willing to look at all prospects.
