Yard art?..Or What to do with a spare '32 Pontiac

My wife's been bugging me to put my old Pontiac sedan body in the front yard to plant flowers in/around. So on this fine sunday afternoon I made her happy. I don't know about the neighbors though. They are pretty cool about my activities. Nothing really surprises them. Before I get any nasty responses about trashing this body, I recovered it upside down from a river bank, and dug the fenders/running boards out of the bank as well, about 35 years ago and have maintained it in this condition since then because it belonged to my great grandmother, and because I thought it was cool! My brothers and I used to play in it and use it as a club house when we were kids. It's also the only GM car on the property!

 

um... sell it to me

 

Still looks like a builder to me..... why waste it in the front yard?

 

Makes a nice Christmas card too.

 

She's reeeeal rough. The time on the river bank wasn't good to her. I do appreciate your concern though. -Mike

 

U want "Yard Art" ....I will send you Yard Art..............sell me the body..............will drive it.

I have stuff uglier than that set aside to build - I agree with the above guy, I'd build something with it.

Oh well, it beats it being s****ped or still on the river bank -

 

I'd love to put one of my early 389's in that thing....Beats a Model A any day....

I have been looking for one for a while and it is yard art...Larry

 

You want yard art ???? Here's some yard art (not mine)..........

 

you better bolt that thing to the ground
or chain it to the trees or something
that thing is nicer than most of the stuff at iola with big price tags on it
tk

 

I like your idea and the story behind it. Yard art is cool!! You'll enjoy that car every day.

 

That Poncho looks better than my coupe I have been working on all weekend .

 

Honor your great granny and get it back on the road. I'd love to have something like that to build.

 

I don't have a flower car , in my yard , but I do have a cactus truck ( 53 Chevy body full of bullet holes ) . Sitting next to my barn . Cactus coming out of all wheelwells bed and windows . Sorry no pictures.

 

I happen to know the lady this yard art belongs to,,,,

A photo taken last during the day,,,,HRP

 

And the same yard art at night,,,,

BTW,,,the lights are not photo shop,,,,,I cut plexigl*** and inserted small christmas lights in the headlight buckets.,,,HRP

 

Yeah uh... doors might be hard to find! Just try to find a picture of one of these on the internet!, let alone find basic parts for it. I like it just the way it is.

 

I like the idea. I've got 2 Crosley wagons I want to put in the front yard facing each other. The ol'lady won't let me. She said the nieghbors would complain, since we haven't even lived here 8 months.

 

Well it sounds to me like you got a cool old lady. Does look like a builder in the pictures.

 

Yard Art,...............

 

does look nice in the yard man, and it aint costin ya nuthin either!

 

Man I didn't realise they were such a good looking car, Id be puttin' it back on the road, seen a lot worse put back together!!
