Not mine! But I found this link on a DMC forum to a pust on a Rustang
forum. Could be some interesting things up there!

This guy has collected HUNDREDS of acres of cars! NOBODY knows about this
place. Its in the middle of nowhere in RI. The owner is working on CRUSHING
all these vintage cars! He has been instructed by the state to get rid of
all the cars. It will take years to crush all these cars and the owner is 70
years old. I have no idea what will become of the largest junkyard I have
ever seen. Nobody knows of this place. Thousands of these classics will go
to waste. Here is mostly mustang pictures I took . There us Hundreds of
64-71 Mutangs. Boss, mach 1, many many convertibles, K codes, fastbacks..
Maybe shelbys? The owner is crazy. He's always drunk is very hard to deal
with. He's in another world. He said he personally DROVE nearly all the cars
in a field in the 60's-70 and left them there for dead. Many are rusted
beyond repair. But there still many parts cars. It will take about two weeks
of walking 5 hours a day to see all the cars here. Plus many of them are so
buried in overgrown trees and prickers there is no way to see them. I seen a
dozen complete 392 hemi cars. This guy refuses to advertise, so nobody knows
about it. Believe it or not the guy is still buying cars and driving them in
the woods. The last time i was there the owner bought a running 60's mustang
and drove it in the woods to be left for dead.

Some people may see these pictures and see this and think this mess is
illegal, well it may be, but the state is aware of it and they have ordered
him to clean it up. He is cleaning it, just very slowly. He is 70 years old
and when he dies or goes fully blind (he is almost blind) The junkyard will
be taken over by the state and over 20,000 classic cars will be destroyed. I
do not have the owners phone number. He will sell parts or cars, but is hard
to deal with and if you go there he will usually walk you to the car you
need parts for if he's not too drunk. He will not let you wander around the
yard by yourself to look at whatever you want.

I know I will get endless emails about this so I will give you all the info
I have right here.

If you want to see this massive junkyard from a map view I found it on
google maps. You can see the cars scattered in the woods.
According to google maps location is called "brant trail". Scroll left from
that location and follow the trail of junk in the woods.

Heres a direct link.
