Ontario Regt bone yard sale
 
looks like someone has decided to sell the boneyard vehicles

https://www.kijiji.ca/v-classic-cars...ationFlag=true

Can anyone comment?

I would have thought an announcement on here might have been a place to start

Yet there is only 1 veh listed......

The wordage in the ad is clear

"We are clearing out our bone-yard and have many interesting vehicles up for sale. Possible Restoration, Parts or Resale... we don't care! Just need them gone."

I think that what Charlie is saying is that there is a disconnect between the statement in the ad and yet only 1 ad is posted that he (and I) can find.
I would expect that the museum yard sale to be more successful with more detail to the listing. Individual ads would be most effective but even one ad saying "We have the following items for sale" would draw more interest. It might save them being inundated with calls/emails saying "I'm looking for....." and might also get buyers to realize that they "need" some treasure out of the yard.

Thanks, Grant. Amazing that you have to explain the obvious.

Yep - it"s not like the ads aren't free, or pictures either.

Last night the link produced a "No Longer Available". Either the truck sold or they withdrew the ad. I guess we need to "stand by for more".
