I used to go down to Len's often. Friendly guy. I lived in
San Francisco; I think I first went down there in 1985 or 86,
I think he was winding down the yard even then. (I'm sure you
recall, it was an old-fashioned yard, car juices drained right
into the soil, I recall him saying city, county or state wanted
him to stop...) I think he sold all the Jeep stuff to some other
yard. It was definitely dying off when I bougt my Classic wagon
from him.

I had heard of Ed Stack from who knows where, finally got up
there right as he was closing too (cause? or effect?). Huge
barn of new AMC/Rambler stuff, not seen anything like it before
or since. I always wondered what happened to all that amzing
collection of parts.

Do you have any idea?
