Pictures of Old abandoned cars and Junk you have stumbled upon

In the woods, in rivers, over cliffs, in deserts, post em here!

 

This pile sits in the field of my girlfriend's mother's house. The former owner hasn't towed it away yet, swears he is going to restore it It's a more door, beat to hell and not much left, good luck to him. It makes a nice photo though.

 

You would have to check out my videos on Youtube. Search videos by username Ratmotor Mike.

 

the pictures are kind of big, but these are all from a junkyard in emily, MN, there had to be a few hundred cars there with most of them complete

we wanted to but we didnt really have anything with to get them home with. eventually if we ever need anything we know where to get it

 

God! Those pics are great. They all look to be "preserved" very well. Wouldn't it be wonderful to be able to just pick one out and take it home?

 

yeah i agree, it would have been nice to take quite a few home, i just wish we had the room for them

 

A thread like this can pull in half the***** that's on flea-bay.

This F-6 was in the Virginia weeds. Stu

 

Here are couple from the local stash

 

Here's one of many buried in an old dried up river bed in Buckeye, Arizona.
From what I gather these were in a junkyard near the river when a flood occured and washed them down stream. None of the cars have running gear and they are beat to***** from the crushing forces of mother nature, but it sure was neat to see 'em there.

 

Just found this one last night ..rollin through ORE..,,Alwas keepin my eyes peeled..now to see if it's in my price range...http://s227.photobucket.com/albums/dd8/shanesflames/?action=view&current=IMG_3982.jpg

 

My favorite kind of thread...

 

WHOAH!!! Whats the deal with those Mercs?? That would make me roll to Minn. with my trailer!

The 50 2 dr looked to have been an OD trans car, but Im sure all that stuff is gone or junk. The 4 dr has a nice 51 wheel on it too....man what a find!

 

Really!! Those Mercs do not need to be sitting there rotting away.Someone needs to get them out of there ASAP!!

 

yeah that 50 2 dr did not have a trans or the flathead, but the 4 dr did have both and there was a 51 4dr that also had both, most of the cars there had the complete running gear also

 

I saw this one day when their gate blew open about 15 years ago. Of course, he was about to start fixing it up.
Finally this year he decided that at age 86 he might not be getting around to it very soon, and sold it to me.

 

30TudorSedan, please rent a space and a tractor or a jeep, what ever it takes to get them out of there and bring 'em home, there's not more of theese beeing produced, right !?

With any luck, I should be able to pick this thing up for less than scrap price + gas money next spring.

 

Any chance you can find out what he wants for the 50 coupe? And how good/bad it is? Thanx man!

Not exactly abandoned, but it looks the part. She's mine now.

 

the owner actually gave us a couple business cards, heres the info if you would like to e-mail him or give him a call to see what he wants for it or anything else he has. phone number, (218)763-2501, e-mail: dwsales@emily.net, and the adress is 38560 South Highway 6, P.O. Box 175, Emily, MN 56447. and im sure the owner would rather see these cars saved and built rather than rotting.

 

If I can work out a deal on it just get it running, paint the wheels red, throw in a couple of Mexican blankets and drive it like I stole it.
