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

I just started working there this summer.Maybe this time next year they will give me some wiggle room with the cars and trucks .

 

Just funnin' you dude. As long as they get paid it shouldn't matter to them how they get their $$, you or making crumbs. Keep up the good work!

 

Southeast corner, about 35 miles from Manitoba, and 15 miles from U.S.

 

Dang, a little far from me... I'm in the middle of Alberta.

You should post a photo of that chassis!

 

This is hands down my favorite thread!!

 

I googled and called . The guy said he new nothing about Wheeler Bros owning a scrap yard or selling old cars . Do you have any other info ? Thanks for the heads up .

 

They own a scrap business as well. You may need to talk to one of the brothers. Ask for the boss man.

 

I stand corrected, it is located right next to Wheeler bros. The scrap guys name is Joe and his number is 580-774-8372. I just talked to him and he said car guys are always welcome. there you go boys, my gift to you.

 

I found this at work not sure what it came off of.

 

I could be wrong, but I suspect that is from a mid sixties GMC truck.

 

EE you almost need to stop posting pics so we can stop crying over this iron that can't be saved.

 

these are for sale. I picked up the 61 impala. 60 wagon is all right other than quarter panel, 61 bel air 4 dr, reasonable on most prices

 

call buba, yale ok 918 399 2628. these cars have been sitting most were impound bought cars then this guy got them from the guy before he past now he's getting up in age too. His wife wants them gone. wagons were high but most other was reasonable

 

Looks like a Miller-Meteor Combo....good shape too. The Ecto-1 was based on the exact same model.

 

That green '59 four door have a 348 in it? It's got flags on the hood. Just wondering.

 

You are correct sir!

 

@ Quain Stott let me know if you need hard to find 67 - 69 stuff, my dad and I are heavy into them, even have a nice quarter panel top....

 

Why thank you sir!

But to be MORE correct, I should have said Miller-Meteor "Futura Limousine" Combination

 

Funny i found an original ecto 1 movie car zitting in a storage yard in santa ana. Not for sale and all the windowz were broke out. Still had all the roof rack stuff, sirens, lights and door emblems.

A Futura IS a limo style by default, so that redundancy would not have been more correct.

 

Pics that I am posting ?Or by me posting pics that make this thread come to the top?I'm never posting another pic from work again .Unless of course it is to tell you guys I got it home and its safe.

 

Man this is wrong. You should post em if you want to. The orignal premis of this thread was cars that couln't be bought and were going to waste away. Read the first post. I think Eddie is just giving these cars one last chance to be enjoyed before their ultimate demise. Come on guys, face it , You Can't save em all, that is what this thread is about. Its cool that some of these cars have been saved. I enjoyed the pictures he was posting. He was enjoying shareing them.

 

Thanks Mastergun .Yeah I never wanted to ruin a thread or bug anyone .Just thought I 'd share with some folks who love cars too.I'm not butt hurt life goes on.

 

Eddie isn't the only one here who works a scrap yard.

Those of you whining (that aren't doing it in jest) need to put on your big girl panties & deal with it.

 

Post away I like them.

 

Don't remember if I posted this one yet..It's sitting on the side of the road. The road is called ( yellow snow ) cracks me up every time I pass it.

 

Man that's a sad way to see a 63 go out!

I agree. 4dr hardtops are great hell most 4dr posts are these days. anything is better than gel-coated bumpers

 

Post away. Or, start your own thread. I enjoy your pics. Tell your boss you need a raise and he can double his money if he can hold a few cars till you show us. I'm sure everyone reading this thread has seen a part or two they want, or even a complete car they would gladly pay double scrap price.

 

The green 59 car appears to be a Biscayne. The hood is white and doesn't appear to be original to it. I'd bet a peek under there would reveal 6 in a row instead.
