This is the Estate of Dr. Billy James Taylor. Dr. Taylor passed away in the fall of 2024.
He was a veteran and a physician at the Veterans Hospital in Murfreesboro Tennessee
for many years. He loved cars and appears that he never sold any of his purchases.
Many of these cars he bought new and as he purchased additional vehicles he parked
the others. Many of these cars have sat for years in the elements and will need
complete restoration. We have tried to describe these cars and tested what we could.
You are encouraged to view these vehicles in person and you are buying them in AS-IS
condition. If you have any questions feel free to contact us. Probate Court Case #2024PR530
