The junkyard was in southern Ohio. The closest large city was Dayton.

Those are some sad pictures for sure. There is a huge VW Junkyard in Akron Ohio called Two Brothers they let my dad walk through there before.

Why did I run through life with blinders on? When I lived in Parma Ohio I was 45 minutes from Akron. I was was in Akron only once. I drove 30 minutes many times to go to a Junk Yard in Medina Ohio that only had about 10 VW's.

A guy at work mentioned he saw a Junkyard in Indiana, that had VW's stacked up over the fence...
I think he said take 69 to 6, then head west on 6. Anybody know of that one?

Once again blinders. When I lived outside of Goshen IN I was 1 hour from Angola. I guess I even drove by that place many times on my way to and from Ohio on route 20.
Want to know an other thing I am kicking myself for I once lived in Orange County CA. At the time I was not interested in VW's. I was 16-18 years old. Stupid!
I need to visit a Junk Yard soon this spring.
