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

Just shows there is still plenty of raw material out there, some of it very raw...........

 

Yea, that Corvair Ramside.....there's a reason why it's there. I along w/the guy who owned that one can mark off my list of cars to NEVER own again........................

 

Yep, that's exactly what it is. It's a crazy thing. Here's another look.

 

This 'ol Buick is in north Alabama. Just off a county road, pass by it going to work.

 

Check out the Dragmaster wheels on the front.

 

Yeah I almost bought that car, they sold it out from under me. $3000

 

Here's a few of one's we've got laying in our shops parking lot.....Rich

 

I find tons of shit like that every time I go out, some of it I haul in but most of it I leave.
In Texas they were "Imona" cars. Imona fixer up some day. Or "that was my daddy's truck"
Well I hope your daddy would be happy it's rotting into the ground and not in the hands of someone who would appreciate it.
Great pics though, and someday the guy who won't sell will kick the bucket and you can get it cheap from his kids, if you get it before they have the crusher guy haul it off.

 

and that's cheap for that car ,, bummer

 

Sorry I got interupted while posting and didn't finish the story. These cars are owned by my boss's the Kanter's and have been told that they were gonna be projects but nothings been done to them in the 3 years I've been working in their restoration shop except move them from one side of the lot to where they sit today.I was also told theres even more sitting in a lot at one of the other buildings, have to get some pics one day.....Rich

 

I see a bunch of cars at their place when I go by on I-287 behind the building

 

Thats one of the other buildings they own,that building houses all the Packard parts plus some of their car collection,that one only has a handfull of cars at that one, the one with the large amount of cars is on the southbound side just off the highway but not visible from 287....Rich

 

A friend I once knew in Riverside had some vehicles that like others "I'll fix them someday"
a very salvageable 57, and old chevy and an old ford,, might still be there

 

Rich: Kanters used to own a custom built on a '56 Packard coupe. I was told it was built by a guy who wanted his own Packard Request. This car was a bit rough, I believe black, and had a rather enormous projecting grille with a split bumper. It was advertised for sale in '87 in Hemmings. I checked it out while it was there and have always remembered it, but assumed it sold circa the ad because it disappeared from the yard around that time. Haven't heard anything on it since. Have any info ?

 

Thats it!! That does it!! People are just damn stupid!!!

 

Here is a few I took today. These old relics have been sitting there for a while as evedent in some of the pics.









old dodge delivery truck

41-46 chevy truck





old dodge panel wagon




Anyone have a clue as to the year make and model of the above pic. Its a four door, with suicide rear doors?

some old heavy 4x4??

Ford cab and frame, not sure on the year

 

1928 Model A AR Sport Coupe.



1928 Canadian Model A Roadster.



Saved them both.

 

Wow, that is a lot of work...

 

I think I can help this thread , a Lot of those really rusty cars are being saved and imported into Australia by an Importer here in Melbourne's East LOL

So basically you are calling your Grams an a-hole....... I'm seeing you think anybody who won't give or sell you what you want is a "hoarder", your attitude probably shows when you are asking for a deal.
If I owned something that was near and dear to my heart, regardless of its condition or lack of my using it I would send you packin'!

 

ahhh man, 52RAM108, I see a lot of those for sale around Fresno on CL,,

 

Here is an idea,take it if you like. Keep your personal drama in the family... you shouldn't be airing family laundry on the HAMB.

 

Hey, Is that Dwayne?
It sure looks like him,and he dug up a 57 vert a few years ago, here in Ky

 

hard to believe someone would go to that extreme, but hey,,
did he restore it? would love to know if it ever got restored.. interesting
