Anyone want to open their own muscle car junk yard?

That same yard has been for sale on ebay every now and then for years.

AND a buddy said move the decimal two places to the left and have a better shot....lob off two zeros.....

:clobbered:



$16,000 ? The land alone is looks like it may be worth 200k.
You made me go back and recheck the posting. You, my friend, have some mad Obama math skills. If it was only $16k, people would be lining up around the block, as you noted, for the property alone.
Go back and re-read. That's $1.6M.
 
you would have to pay me to take the land.....the environemntal clean up would cost 1.6m alone.....it would be an albatross forever....decades of leaking oil, gas, trans fluid, batteries. i bet thats why they have a lease clause for a dollar

The Aerojet-General Corporation had a facility at Azusa, California. It had a relatively large population of employees working on aerospace government contracts. Also, included were state of the art satellite test chambers (thermal/vacuum) and production equipment. They wanted to sell it. As I understand it, the asking price was $1. The kicker? If you bought the facility you had to take responsibility for environment damage that supposedly had been created in the past. Specifically, Aerojet was the leading manufacture of JATO rocket engines. (Jet Assisted Take Off) at the end of WWII. These were solid propellent engines and used a chlorate propellant. Aerojet dumped a lot of unused chlorate into ground water that worked its way into the the San Gabriel valley water supply. Northrup Grumman bought this facility. Have no idea as to how the liability issue was settled.

I imagine like most govt contractors, they will just clean it up, and pass the cost back to govt at cost &10%.
I did explosion proof electrical work at aerospace for 2 years. They din't care, as they just charged the govt back for all my work. (Plus 10% processing and handling).:D

Bet odds all they can trace is one part per trillion or something about as insignificant, in other words the reality is, no problem.....

YEH, in lawyer fees, but damn precious little was done, even the school building remains and used, the houses....maybe one or two lost then rebuilt on the same plot, IF that,.....so yes your ARE correct that they wasted tons of money on it....but the reality is, there was little done in a practical sense and the territory is occupied to this day, the BIG SCARE is over with....
