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

saw these, guy came out yeah each is for sale, 1million each, make you a deal today only 500K. He was off a busier hwy so I'm sure people have asked before. The 55 bel air said motor had 20 miles on it, little 235 but probably 20 years of sitting on flat tires

 

the buick was cool too

 

This old gmc / dumptruck came in it had those curved rear wrap around side windows .I grabbed them . I can't remember who was asking me to keep an eye out for these ..maybe they fit a pick up too?

 

I was asking about the Dodge ones, I need the glass and the steel around them (just like 2 inches worth surrounding the glass) so I can weld them into my 1/2 ton.

This was a good grab though, they are the very same on GM trucks from 48-54 as far as I know for all sizes.

 

Well shit Not sure what will be left on Monday ,but hey I'm still keeping an eye out for you.I guess if one comes in I can try to use a chop saw and cut them out.

 

Well if anyone else is in need of these two windows They will be sitting in my shed of parts and stuff.Not sure how hard it would be to mail them.

 

I know a guy who has two yes two Ford Vic's im not 100% sure if a vicky but both have flatties, suicide doors and a soft top along with the running boards and one under canvas look like something from Bonnie and Clyde. He just went thru major cancer surgery and will not sell them, his wife will sell em for cheap when he gets his boots removed.

 

Here's some.

 

Can't remember where I found this pic:

It was pretty nice 30 years ago. Owner died last year. I never liked the flares though.

 

reminds me of the pickers cabins from 'grapes of wrath'

Here is a couple I found snowmobiling in the U.P. Michigan. Right off the trail near Gibbs City, (6 houses, considered a ghost town). 1936 Ford Trunkback sedan and a 20's Chevrolet I think.

 

maybe not "rotting"but they are sitting...

 

Yea 26 thru 28 Chevy for sure. I would love either of those!

I would make someone a deal here, If they have a COMPLETE dash and steering wheel from a 54 merc that they would want to get rid of I would trade them a 49 merc 4 door for it, the merc 4 door is all there other than the dash and glass. It is a very buildable car. Jim
