Welcome to Mikes Land of Dead Cars


Well, they are not all dead.. Some actually run. Some are being used! Some are sitting here, waiting for a potential new owner.. Some are gone...

Basically - stuff on the left is here - stuff on the right has gone somewhere else.
Probably have a few more too add.
