Good news! Hot rod collector left it all for the county to auction off!

Those vehicles were moved to the Public Administrator’s lot in Santa Ana, where staff have been attempting to identify them and determine their value ever since.

Ford Model Ts and Model As, Volkswagen Buses and Beetles, and dozens of other models, including many Chevy work truck 3100 and 6400 models, an F100, and they did not yet inventory the vehicles to give us an accurate list of year make and model, but they did say there is a 49 Ford convertible

There are piles of tires, a truck bed loaded with rusted Ford flathead V8 engines and a frame for a 1900s Ford pickup, as well as hubcaps, headlights, radiators, tailgates and gas cans.

Seems like nothing is very firmly known for a fact yet, not the day of the auction, or what they are auctioning... so, lot's of interest but not enough to kickstart anyone to do the right thing and get answers.
