Rudi Klein's “Junkyard” collection, Los Angeles, California, USA

The collection was amassed by German immigrant Rudi Klein, who started a scrapyard business in South Central Los Angeles in 1967.

The collection includes standout models like the Lamborghini Miura, Mercedes-Benz 300 SL, and Mercedes-Benz 500K, and in many cases there are multiple examples.

The collection also includes a 1939 Horch 855 Special Roadster allegedly owned by Eva Braun, plus a 1967 Iso Grifo A3/L Spider Prototype by Bertone, and a smattering of Porsche 356es.

A bit of a gearhead himself, Klein had an eye for rare autos, primarily those from his homeland. He recognized that spare parts would be hard to come by so he started amassing the cars, typically purchasing them as wrecks. As a result, most of the cars in the collection will need a lot of work to get them back into road-worthy condition.
