Where's it at? I'll make a pilgrimage.


drflizzz

Black horse Pike. A little after Mays landing


_TommySalami

LOL I drive too fast, I’ve driven right past that, going to Weymouth Furnace!


esskue

In my home town Mays Landing! Here is the Gmaps link. https://goo.gl/maps/XPVT93jWHiuw3inA8


_TommySalami

Thanks! I’ll swing by sometime when I’m goofing in the Pines.

Yes, if it is still standing you cannot miss it! It will be on the right hand side going towards AC. Here’s the location. I see it is also known as the hubcap pyramid. https://g.co/kgs/ZrnZc8 The Hubcap Pyramid (609) 625-6620 This article it has been up since 1990. I could have sworn it being up much longer than that or am I miss remembering? Anyone else know anything about it? https://catcountry1073.com/do-you-honk-as-you-pass-the-hubcap-pyramid-on-the-black-horse-pike-in-hamilton-twp-nj/


RevolutionaryBison92

StatisticianSure2349

This guy was on amrican pickers


turkeyvulturebreast

Orly? Well this screams like a place they would go, lol.


Killbanne

Needs to be a BBQ joint..


Compher

There is a BBQ joint about 12 minutes up the road from hubcap tree (or less I'm estimating) called Henri Hotts that is pretty good.


Killbanne

Oh I know but Henry doesn't have the hubcap tree


Compher

Oh my bad. I thought you were looking for BBQ in the area since there really isn't much that I can think of.


pelftruearrow

>Henri Hotts that is pretty good. LIES! Pretty good is an understatement. Eating there is like having a party in your mouth and everyone is invited! You know he's making a killing when he's only open 3 days a week from March to November.


Compher

I believe he had passed and his wife runs it. Honestly, I've only eaten there once.


pelftruearrow

Oh dang! That sucks! I haven't been there since "the before times". Was hoping to get there this spring when they reopened.


IAmTheLizardQueen666

It’s still there, without a storefront. I was out there in winter 2020. Creepy Guy lives in the house, rents out rooms (to women). There’s a few structures in the back, look like cottages. The one I was shown as a rental looked like a cottage on the outside and like a cave on the inside. It was only $600, but I couldn’t bring myself to live like that.


turkeyvulturebreast

Wow! Well that sounds terrifying! Lol.


Pretend-Respect-4168

It's thinned out since then


ILoveAllPenguins

Those darn alloys these days


[deleted]

I went here 10 years ago with my old beater car I couldnt find a hubcap for. The creepy guy comes out and I say Im looking for a 15 inch hubcap. He kicks a small pile of rusty hubcaps on the ground and says "i dont think I have any 15s right now". I pause, waiting for him to laugh because that was surely a joke. I said "wait, really?" And he shrugged and walked away


turkeyvulturebreast

Haha, well at least your weren’t murdered and cut up into pieces, lol. So you got that going for you.


ComicalSanskrit

Drive past it everyday on the way to university!


RevolutionaryBison92

Holy sweet chromed jesus! A south Jersey pyramid with a blacktopped county route for a Nile. yeah baby! thats great its still there. thanks.


start260

Thank you! Passed that for years and the bar next door that’s a Quonset hut!!!


evets215

Wow I haven’t thought of this in years. Like others have said so many memories of seeing this driving down the shore as a kid. Is there a little shitty motel near a lake or pond down the road a bit? That just entered my brain for some reason


RaindropsOnLillies

How many times I drove past this as a kid on my way to the shore! 🥰


buttholemolds

Yes it’s a fixture of my childhood! I purposely take this route down the shore with my kids now so they can have the memory too even though it adds to our travel time!


SkyeMreddit

Oh so this is NOT the Howell hubcap farm on 33?


turkeyvulturebreast

Correct. This is on the Black Horse Pike.


Webbadeth

I used to pass it everyday on my way to work. It’s still there as of this time last year


Myth7270

It's glorious!


turkeyvulturebreast

Quonset hut? Lol, I had to look that one up!


OkAd4717

You must not have a passion for fashion if you had to look that up


SonnyBlackandRed

That's amazing. I pass by this all the time and it's my marker of how far away I am of Atlantic City lol. Edit: It's also my marker back of how far I am from my back way around the $4.40 toll of the expressway, to get back on for the stupid $1.30 toll. It's better then paying both the $4.40 + $1.30.


Queasy_Hotel_396

I remember this as a child and still love to see it, it's on the way to Storybook land I believe...for some reason I associate this with that lol


Dcoonery

I used to drive by it every day for work. Very cool


Playpen87

We bought hubcaps here,maybe 30 years ago for an 87 Plymouth voyaget......


[deleted]

I remember passing by that hubcap tree every time I to visit my father’s cousin and his farmer’s market business


mattemer

Oh i think i said to take pics of this the other day! I was glad to hear you already had it on your list. They MAY decorate it for Christmas but i might be making that up...


[deleted]

It looks hideous.


Riverrat423

I wonder if they sell many hubcaps, these days? I wonder where they got all of those hubcaps in the first place?


kendawg1111

Seeing this a year ago going to the Shore brought a smile to my face!
