    I was dirvin around today and spoted these buties in a wash of the side of the road I stoped and looked at one of them then i was talking to the guy who ownes them. He says "theres about 4-5 more up there."
    I just about **** my self... Long story short the guy said I could take any thing I wanted there are 5 car bodies and a pickup box all burried in the dirt. This is good because the dirt out here in arizona is dry so it should have preserved them fairly well. At least 3 out of the 5 are good enough for cars and the outher 2 I'll steal the trim peaces off of them to make some money.

    What i hade to give up for these babies? $200 for any thing in his wash i wanted, in the pictures you can see off in the background more parts for bolth cars and boats.

  12. Looks like a 47-52 Stude convert to me, too. If it's solid, you probably could turn it and make a few bucks, even if it's missing the top bows and stuff.

    Believe it or not, even if you don't pull the bodies out take all the decent trim you can off the bodies,like those SS panels on the lower quaters of the upside down pic.Sell them on E-bay.You'll be amazed at how much you get for them!!!'I know someone who sold the 3 grill panels off a 39 chevy for $850!! he just had then sitting around his garage from a project cat!!
    I myself sold 2 small SS pieces for a 48 merc for $46, it was just junk i picke up of the ground at a junkyard.

  15. Good find, I found the ch***is for my A model in a black berry patch behind the local shops. I was walking past and noticed the frame horns sticking out a bit. Grabed a machete and 5 min later had the start to my car!!
