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

Man what I would do for that truck, very cool find

 

^^^^^^One of the original crew cabs; many of these were used by logging cos. here in the N.W. back in
the '50s and '60s...

 

^OUCH! That is one sad looking MGA roadster....

 

That's a nice body. JW

 

Haha 3wLarry had a thread on this one. Called it chicken coop .

 

Good bumper on that MG roaster!

 

That "57 Buick hearse" is just some cobbled together leftovers. 56 Chevy tail lights and bumper, Late 40s Buick "fadeaway" fender extensions, early 50s Buick front sheet metal, and all sorts of mismatched trim. The "tailfin" pieces look to be old JC Whitney add-ons. The curved glass on the top is yellowed like plexiglass and that flat glass on the rear door probably leaks a tad. Still sad to see it sitting and rotting.

 

34 Chrysler

 

I pulled the 352 interceptor engine from this 59 in the 60,s. put it with a stick trans in a 56 htp.

 

if the hubcap does say CARTERCAR I will give you $50.00 for it!!

 

The guy says it is Cadillac. RATS! Do you need a Cartercar hubcap?

 

That hearse was saved, but I don't know the rest of the story.
Saw it somewhere on here with photos of it being flatbedded.

 

40 Cadillac

 

Looks like Hank Jr. found himself a '39 Merc....

 

That's the first thing I thought of when i seen the picture. Maybe it's a family tradition.

 

Man...... That thing looks very "Dry" and rust free.
It also looks very complete and not picked over, if someone wants a Moredoor Family Cruiser this looks to be a great start.

 

I remember that also, found those pics, Mav daddy was the OP, said it was behind a Mercedes plant in Greece, it got moved...unfortunately looks like a different place to rot...

 

Howr'e you overthere in Buttwaller? Heres a 61 Pontiac that was real nice when it came into this yard, but now,it's sitting and rotting

 

If I lived on the west coast I'd empty my back account real quick....

When were those pics taken? I could use some parts off those two.

 

That humpback is very desirable.

 

Looks to be a 1936 Dodge Brothers humpback.

Greenhouse fire???

Must've been arson to get rid of the evidence!

 

I know, and its very straight and solid. It may be for sale later this year, too.
