Hi my name is Phil and the location of this gallery has been in my family for over 100 years. I am the second generation Kilpatrick to do salvage in this yard, my father Donald Kilpatrick being the first. I have always been passionate about old vehicles and vintage items and have always dreamed about sharing my passion with the world. The saying is definitely true one persons trash is another persons treasure and I see treasures everywhere I go. When the metal rush of 2008 went through I put all my passion into saving the American history that was disappearing on a daily basis. Watching this happen was devastating to me because this is history we will never get back. If we don’t preserve some of what is disappearing in front of us daily our grandchildren and great grandchildren will never see these items for what they are but only for what they were in photos. Nothing tangible to see or touch just a picture and a memory. I have been collecting my whole life and the past 5 years I have been working into forming my collection into a gallery for people to enjoy. Mixing flowers and botanicals into my vintage collection my most recent dream. I met my wife Amanda in 2020 and married in 2022 and we now pursue this dream together. We constructed our own greenhouse and are starting our plants from seeds in hopes to further the botanical gardening as we strive to collect and intermingle our vintage finds with nature. If you have any interest in vintage items and beautiful landscapes please come join us!
