Art & Inspiration Your stash of unfinished, or future projects, Lets see em !

Once upon a time in the late 1960's, there was a stack like this but, IIRC, that stack in Carson, CA. was about 3-4 times taller, and was a tremendous sight to behold from the Northbound lanes of the 405 Freeway. I've never seen photos of it on the internet but it was a huge, ginormous pile. A missing link from the past from Southern California.

 

i would agree with selling some if they were desirable cars i.e. 40 fords, 32 whatever. most of mine are odd ones and some just a pile of parts bolted together. if i have learned anything in 70 years is, people look to find some reason to put down what you want for them below a realistic price. it doesn't run, the brakes aren't hooked up, it doesn't have glass, anything to get it cheap. i quit trying to sell non finished cars. if i get them running (even with a junk motor) people will buy them for more money.

ps: why do people post that they don't have any projects on a thread that is asking for their projects?

 

Heres my 46 that im hoping to get started on toward the end of the year. First i need to get my mustang running,the station wagon is my wifes, its also waiting its turn

 

Updated shot of the T. The 62 is still waiting its turn.

 

i love the word stashed...funny though ,most of the stuff ive stashed ive horse traded , sold , given away....this is a clean rust free 40 Buick serires 50...i may keep it stashed ..

 

I'm afraid to show my stash, the city might figure out where its located! But you can see old pics of it on my profile page album.

 

Cool fleet, Glad I took the time to look, I like em all but Im generally a 55 chevy guy, also especially like the fleetline too

 

hey rustyheaps , love the 46 chevy coupe.had one about 10 years ago...biz coupe , solid car...

 

Thanks guys! I have made progress since those photos were posted.

 

Hey Rusty ! Post some pics of the 46...thanks

 

I try and only have two projects at a time. One to work on, one to scrounge parts for. Otherwise you have no money to do anything.

 

My topolino race car is on hold while I build my street car. Glen

 

I realized some time ago that when I put $500. into each of 3 project they don't get any closer to being done. If I put $1500 into one project there's a good chance it will get done. And that project right now is finishing my 57 which has been sitting for 25 years.

Finished restoration on the 1942 Ford WWII jeep, next in line after finishing the 39 Ford Pickup.

 

I was just about to start on this but my OT transportation blew the engine so it has to be done first.
