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

Damn.Oh well maybe next time

 

ok yall are lucky certain things stick out in my mind when i think on it hard enough. i was able to remember the town we stayed in the hotel, and traced my tracks back.

 

You don't know that, just because you don't like 4 doors doesn't mean there aren't a couple thousand people out there that want the car they first drove, or their parents, or grand parents drove.......Do you really think a 2 door rambler is a better car?
You are just spouting your own personal likes and dislikes.......

 

On google earth go to Grant Lake Minnisota, or Wilton Minnisota go over to the left a tad and then up a bit and it shows up just fine.

 

yes i was ---those are my opinions developed in over 55 yrs in the hobbie ---but if you really want ramblers the woods around joplin are full of them all body styles---it is embarassing---i blame the Reeds...

 

heres a few at my dads house in massachusetts . the 37 dump we used on the farm growing up . In the winter time He used to drive it out on the pond to see if the ice was safe ! us kids would sit an watch an be SO SCARED dad was going to fall through ! blizzard of 78 it siezed up ,an there she sits . the last storm a tree fell on the merc no worse the ware

 

It would be great if you took some photos of all those Ramblers and shared them with us in this thread. Unless they aren't even worthy of that.

 

next summer at the hamb drags, maybe by then i will have the pictures figured out---i'm talkin marlins ,rebel drag cars, fins ,all types--- have not been there since scrap got high but i bet they are still there....

 

thanks for getting a clearer pic of it. these government computers block alot of sites.

 

I figured something like that.... I found it OK and thought maybe I could be a little helpful whatever the cause.

 

Ha Ha,I thought that before I seen your post......And I have a 67 SST

 

Neat!

Any chance on getting parts? I have a 65 Marlin and I need 4 pieces of chrome and the hood ornament. (mine was rolled but you'd never know it now)

 

This was sitting at a metal scrap yard in NE Arkansas last summer. I tried to buy it but someone was on the way with a trailer already.

 

I have grille for a marlin sitting in the shed.

 

Do you have any other parts?

The grill is the same as the Classic minus the 3 bolt on teeth.

 

No other parts, I got this out of a Marlin at a Pull A Part in Evansville, IN. It had some molding on it but its been a few years ago.

 

Too bad, but I really appreciate you letting me know!

I need the roof strips, both front fender top strips and the hood ornament with the fish on it, they are all unique to the Marlin.

 

I found these about a week ago in an old warehouse. I bought a bunch of cars from the collector, and after we got them all loaded up he asked if I would like to see his indoor junkyard! He had some serious junk!!

 

Some more

 

Wow!

 

Major Dodge, Major WOODIE'S an indoor yard, nice!

 

Hansolo, where are the Fords????????? nice pics!

 

This '55 Pontiac 2-door wagon is sitting near my friend's house, (you can barely see his garage across that field). Car still has the original Pontiac V8 in it.

 

Awww man! '67 4-door hardtop Impala. If I could, I'd be bringing that thing home..

 

Sitting and Rotting no longer...

 

cool poncho

 

Thanks! Local barn find that sat out in a field for a few years before finally being put up for sale. They're still out there.
