These are all S-2 Trackers, an anti-submarine plane used by the U.S. Navy from 1952-1976. Looks like he has nine of them parked on the lot.
[Chuck Walden, 03/17/2011]Ah, I might be wrong, but just by looking at the pics I think they are actually Korean or Vietnam era aircraft. Wings are folded to make storage on carriers easier and the U.S. didn't have aircraft that big on carriers during WWII.

A bunch (9 or 10) of old WW2 planes with fold up wings. They're on private property but you can drive right up to the fence and see them.
