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

With most of my wounds healed and the majority of pain relieved. Along with months of treatment, my doctors told me I could possibly make a full recovery.

And all is lost because somebody just couldn't let this thread die, much like the vehicles being posted.

So now its time for me to take a ride back to the nervous hospital with the nice guys in white suits...

 

Looks like a 37 olds c dan.

 

Spotted this on Kelley's Island last fall, think it's a '40 heavy truck, still had the flattie in it.

 

such a waste, i wish we had stuff like that here in england then i wouldn't have to spend £4000 or somethin on a new body....then i might hav a rod!!

matt.

 

And the worst thing about seeing these cars like this is that the owners wont sell them cuz they're gonna restore them HAHAHAHA

 

Here are a couple I found sitting inside the city, in a little grassed area. not as old as the ones you guys are posting, but still made for a nice little photo op.

 

This looks to be a pink '70 Duster? Looks pink in the picture anyway. I see the fender tag is still present. That would tell the story.

 

36 Corvettes

inxs i'd be all over those...

 

Could be... it has an E body though? (looks like a challenger and a cuda) so possibly one of those?

and yes, the car is pink`ish

 

It's a duster, check the grille

 

i want em alllllllllllllll ..

 

It looks to be '70 Duster. It also has a high impact color...Panther Pink/Moulin Rouge. Very rare color for any mopar of that era...

This site has many cars sitting, makes one sad... http://carsinbarns.com
Most are muscle cars, but there is a section for classics...

 

Double Post...

 

Does a single-seat aircraft count? Found this thing today, less than 2 miles from my house.

 

Sitting here since 1975.

 

ah ok. I see now. that foglight, or turn signal. whichever it is.

 

This is a lousy photo but here is a 38 Ford coupe up on the hill on a farm near me.Been sitting there for many years.I contacted the guy but he won't sell it.He thinks its in good shape but it is already sunk into the ground up to the frame.Its just barely savable now.

 

This sat in Belville Mi for decades,.... the doors and decklid were laying inside it.



I got it about 8 or 9 years ago,.... It ended up going to Roy in Mass. anybody know what happened to it ? (It was really rough,... but repairable)

 

Mmmm, I know right were that is....right in town

 

People dont have to sell their cars I suppose, even though they will never do anything with them. Some may keep them just to have or for sentimental value...

...But atleast put a damn cover over them, to protect them...

 

Ya and that guy wont sell it to save his life, they did an article about it in the Spoksman review.

 

Here are a few that I've collected over the years...

The 1937 Adler Lemans race car and the guy I bought it from. The 68 Olds 442 I bought for $5,000 that had W-30 "D" heads on it that I sold by themselves for $5,000 so I got the car for free. A buried 1958 Buick Limited convertibe. A couple of old Chevies I rescued. And a 67 RS/SS 375hp 396 4spd car.

 

A couple of others not rescued

 

These were recently unearthed from blackberries, just to tease as they will never see a road again, at least not until the owner dies. This time next fall they will probably not even be visible ....again

 

Wow some of these cars are wicked cool.......or once was!!!!

 

`33 Oldsmobile

 

i wish i could find one..... for free. maybe kidnap one and when i get called out say i saved it from an abusive and neglected family.

 

Shit"ll buff out.

 

I have a lot of pics. These are all within 10 miles of my house, some are in different locations.
