  1. No bathroom use ... I go to the Valero just over the bridge ... the graffitti from the Greyhound bus rider just released from San Q is a bewilderment!! LOL


    Yes the cars piss me off also ... I think they (the tree huggers) do it on purpose just for that reason ... passive aggressive!

    I'll have to ask next time Im down there. He seems to be a scavenger that finds these, then re-sells them later. The lot is close to the highway, so I assume he uses it for free advertising. These never move though, he's had some for many years now. I'll have to ask next time Im down that way. I'll PM you when I find out in a month of so. (Not down there too often, its a 6 hour drive east of here).

    Good lord I want those... :( SO nice.

    What's the story behind this one? I have one myself and could use alot of parts of that. As much as I need the parts though, I'd rather see the whole thing saved rather than parted out. A pity to have it rotting away like it is. Probably safe to assume the floors are long gone.

    These are in the field next to my work one is a chev and the other a dodge i think.I asked my boss if he will sell them and he said he will think about it and yes there are some parts that are still useable.

    About 160 miles above the Golden Gate Bridge on 101. The people have plants growing on it with a apple tree in the cab. I guess good advertisement, ... oh well.

    The new rat-rod. Requires moss or lichen.

    If you put air bags in for springs, you can set it on the ground when you park it an make it look abandoned everywhere you go.

    (Hey! You can't park there! I'm not parking it, I'm abandoning it.)

    The back end is, the front is up a bit. Should be fun trying to pull it out of there.

    Wow! Nice 5 window. Those prices must be really high to have those still sitting there. I'd love to have that car.
