Scrap yard warbirds in Atco NJ

Spotted this article in the paper this morning while visiting some friends in S. Jersey. I never heard anything about this place mentioned before.

Sounds like there are some interesting airframes and pieces...

The HR Manager at my job sent me the Philly.com article. This guy sounds like to cold, heartless destroyer of aircraft. I only read once but he talked about cutting up the forward section of an RB-57 and a "Korean War reconnisance airplane".

I'd like to see what automobiles he has in there too.
