Cool Yard Art?

Does anybody here have some cool looking yard art or pics of other peoples yard art? eg> old car, truck or tractor used as part of a display in their yard.
Kicking around the idea, but lets see whats out there!

 

A friend of mine has a rusty ole 50 chevy pickup sitting on blocks under a willow tree in the corner of his yard.
It looks pretty neat sitting there being that his place is mowed trimmed and well kept.

 

I've got a 366 big block chevy I use for a flower pot, only good use for a 366!

 

I had a 33 Chevy 3 window yesterday that was going to go out in front of my house. But for some reason I let another guy have it. But antways heres a picture I have been saving, I think I found it here on the hamb.

 

Not an entire car or tractor, But theres some tractor parts and an old headlight in here.
It's entitled "Married Man" by Missoula's own "Mort"

 

This thread comes up a couple of times a year,,,I'm sure everybody has seen mine too many times and by now probably tired of seeing it. HRP

 

I posted this on the "Shortened Cars" thread. Ratster posted the pic.

That is Steve Heller's place. I stumbled upon that place going to Cooperstown, New York on the way to the Baseball Hall of Fame. It's near the Catskill Mountains in upstate New York, I believe on state highway 28. We decided to take the scenic back way and zoomed right past it. Needless to say we HAD to turn around.

This guy is, in the truest since of the word, a craftsman. He harvests his own wood for the fine wood sculptures he creates. He integrates wood and metal into many of his pieces.

The "yard art" is amazing.

I don't know him personally, I just met him once. I asked him how did he come up with these creations, He told me he was hauling off a lot of "junk" from his father's estate and looked in the rear view mirror and saw possiblities. It never made it to the dump.

A truly neat place.

I could only afford a post card.

I have this mess propped up out in my back yard, about 150 feet off the road. When I first put it up,I could hear guys slamming on the brakes and backing up...

My junk has also been posted before , and all I have heard is "oh what a waste!!!" but here ya go.....Kenny.

 

Here is some of mine! Jim

 

Here's my back shed we dressed up with some of our stuff.

 

Jay.S, That is badass!

 

Jay, that is really sharp! Looks like a time capsule from the 30's.

 

I'm working on it now, a 26/27 touring front half, with an earlier hood and grill shell. It'll be planted in the corner of my yard infront of split rail fence along with some yucca and tall grass. Before anyone gets upset, the sheetmetal is really beyond any other use.

 

Awesome, Jay!

I so want to have something like this for my old trucks.

 

Cool "shed" Jay.

 

If you put it out this year I will call the city you act like you know the Mayor

 

Thats over by Ashokan on 28,,drives a big old Caddy or something like that ,,use to see it in Woodstock

 

I don't remember where I found this picture, but I've thought about replicating it, roadster style...

 

I thought this was cool.

 

All that is cool

 

That's pretty much what I have planned, cool.

 

Here some "JUNK" in my front yard, just to piss the yupps off!

 

That's the lowest tractor I have ever seen
