Surely the metal could have been recycled?.. Or may be they prefer digging every where under the name of "Commercial Mining". 02

The original owner of the garage started collecting cars to use for spares apparently. The site is in Kaufdorf, nr Bern.

This seems to have gotten a little obsessive later on and after his retirement, his son took over but couldn't work out what to do with so many derelict vehicles. So they have been left, as too many are now 'grown-in' to their surroundings.

The source link here doesn't help much, but this has been featured on a few other sites one of which is artificialowl, link shown below.

Some more good pics of a rather sad end for the cars. It does feature elsewhere, but this was the only link I had on record.

fairmania, Excellent link, thank you.


Would be nice to see some of the grills, bumpers and other chrome work end up on some customs and show cars in the States.

Most of the cars look too far gone. 11
