Cleaned out the old Burke Bros Chrysler Plymouth in Pomeroy WA. They closed in 1971 and it was like a time capsule. Here is a video of what we found/bought

Sounds like a whole bunch of fun!
Did you buy the cars as well?
Also, what engine blocks are those?
Congratulations. I'm sure there's a whole bunch of hidden treasure in there...

Let the cars, they both had issues. Which is weird because that area is good for survivor cars. Nothing special in the blocks, there was a truck 440 we might go back for.

Cool. Some of the stuff on the walls like the phone by parts counter is a lot newer then 70s but could obviously been added if they were using the building for personal use.

It's nice when they have enough thought to try to find people who want the stuff rather then junking it all.
