There's a yard near here that has probably 40 acres of stuff that would fit this thread. It breaks my heart every time I go through there, but the guy has always been way too expensive and/or didn't want to part with something.

Some of these, the owner refused (or continues to refuse) to sell, while some (like the '55 Ford COE and the upside down Merc), the guys say "Well, yeah, if somebody had coughed up the money I'd have probably sold that damn thing ten times over by now." Most of them are still rotting... but a few have gone on to the crusher.

Hey Dog427435, This photography you do must be a hobby or you are a professional photographer! Most of the shots are fantastic works of art imho! You should do some calenders, maybe one for '20s-30s, one 40s-50s, a tri 5 calender and a Corvette calender. I would definately buy some! Looking at all these rusty wrecks really makes me appreciate what good condition my newest project is in...
