Art & Inspiration Sitting and Rotting.............picture thread

Somebody please save those mint-looking fr clip and quarters off that dry-looking but mangled-beyond-rescue hulk before they whisk it off to China and recycle it into forks, spoons and nails...

 

Might be a good idea to get them off the grass, though...

 

All of these make me sick. Most of these guys are so broke they couldn't restore them even if they had the skills to do it. Instead of saving their money to buy parts to fix one up they just keep throwing money away on more projects they will never even start.

 

Did you rescue any of them? Jim

 

If you were bit closer to Englend there would be plenty of buyers for them ,even as rusty looking as they are now.

 

I drove 5 hrs up there to get a seat for my 46 ford about 6 years ago.Great place they even sold food there!Nice guys to work with they sent me a bunch of pics of different seats till I seen the one I needed.They will go out of there way to help you.Glad to see they didnt crush out when scrap was high.

 

i didnt take these, found them on another forum, scrapyard somewhere in canada

 

Im going to try and get some pics!

There is a 36 chevy truck just siting under a tree in town and the old mad wont turn it lose, 3 or 4 Model A's 48 Ford Coupe 50 Ford Car, Nash,
58 Cadillac The List runs on and on.

 

more junkyard pics

 

This thread makes me want to curb stomp kittens.

 

No kidding, its like going to a funeral of a loved one ....... Heartbreaking!

 

Damn! Thats like walmart but 1000 times better!

 

they should call this worldvision..

 

if only i could save one of these rides.............................

 

These pictures make me cry...and I've only had one beer!

 

holy cow. all i can say is it's a sad day when u see cars bein let go like this. there's never enough time n money in the world...but one can try!

 

i would have loved to take some good pieces off but i had no tools and its kind off sketchy around there lots of no trespassing signs and some train worker sitting in his truck right by it.

 

I've been up there a couple of times.... Is the industrial hemi still there?

 

Haha!!!!! now I understand too!!!!

 

Man I need to take the boy for a drive and get some photos for you guys. I know where there is so many cars and shit you will cry your faces off. Yes all the same stories I'm gunna do sumthin with it, sum day. I drive bye some cars about once a month and they are still sitting there. 32 3 windows, 32 5 windows, 32 cabriolets, model a's comming out of wood work, 40 fords, 36 fords, 409 impala, knuckleheads, panheads, you name it and it is here but it's never for sale until they DIE. Stupid ass old men and there cars. They should take the money and enjoy what fragile little time they have left. I mean shit I know they have always dreamed about going to the war memorials or need a new roof or sumthin. Never the less you drive bye 2 years later and they are having an estate sale. Poor Dumb BastardS.

 

INXS beat me to em, but heres some more shots from the same yard.

 

1st pic I think everything was crushed (several chargers in the pile), 2nd and 3rd pics are AMC Rebel Machines, pretty high dollar nowadays, 4th is small block mopar, 5th and 6th are a '60 and a '57 plymouth I think

 

These are just sitting in the back yard of a home is Madera. Owner states that hes restoring all of them, and still they sit.

 

Down here in the Mo. Ozarks you have to listen to at least a30 min story about the car or truck until you get the Well I am gonna fix it up some day I know of a 56 Nomad that has been setting in the same spot for almost 30 yr now it has trees growing through it

 

These are sitting at our deer hunting shack, my grandpa parked them both where they sit years ago, he took the wheels off the car and put them in one of the old sheds so they wouldn't rott, just in case he needed them for something else. It ran when he parked it!

 

Those '57 and '60 Plymouths are sweet! The '60 is a Fury... is the '57 a Fury as well??

 

Looks like a '34 Chevy Standard to me.
