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

1910 UNIC truck, 1927 Chenard & Walcker cut down sedan to tow-truck with fancy Marchal headlights, 1927 FIAT, 1934 Ford Y, mid 1950s Renault Juvaquatre,

 

Sorry, I didn't take a close look. If I had the time the taillights could of been had for $15 each. Slight pitting.... rare peices.

Just rescued from a farm in western NSW.

 

Dang it. I'd love the tub off that one. I've got a cab chassis for potential nostalgia drag duty.

 

I,ve got similar plans for my A40. the tub is all aluminium skin with light steel skeleton and wheel tubs.
Not difficult to build one. Give us a shout if you need measurements.

 

Shall do. Thank you

 

Looks like the passenger side windshield post, and part of the cowl / dash has been cut out. Too bad, otherwise the wagon looks pretty good.

 

Don,t be fooled by the aluminium ( aluminum ) tub. It,s a heavy unit, even without the wooden floor. Heres the rock solid A40 ute that i found in Spain about 20 years ago. Became a gasser in the U.K. I also had a A70 Hampshire ute that came from Denmark. Sold that to the U.K. as well . BTW, every A40 ute i have ever seen has the same angle-iron rear bumber and tailgate hinge.

 

In Greeville Alabama, but sitting and rotting no more. My friend saved it this morning .

That 1950's Renault Whateverthefuckitis needs to be saved. Just sayin'

 

Nice one 34Gaz, mine has a rusty floor but otherwise solid. Will modify firewall and tunnel for gasser duty.

 

Kinda saved this one today. Now it can sit and rot at my place until I figure out a plan.

 

And I've got a couple more to go back for

 

Wow, I never knew you could get bumper wings on a Canadian Dodge, looks like rear only, which makes sense since they wouldn't fit on the Dodge style front bumper. But those rear bumper ends are worth some pretty serious coin. The whole car looks very restorable, in fact.

 

Gonna snag this next week.

 

I would use a different frame if I were you....

 

I agree, the wheelbase is a bit short.

 

Ha!! It actually comes with all the original parts including rolling frame, fenders, hood, rad. & shell, etc.

 

I like the 67 Chevy pickup that’s on the lift/rack. Hope it gets saved.

 

Yard art?

 

That's what happens when you run straight water through a flathead.

 

Every couple of months, I tip toe through this thread cause I tell myself that I'm strong enough this time. Then I see the carnage and the waste and I wonder how people can throw away perfectly good things.

 

Thats cool... but... just wrong!

Another Advance-Design 5W pickup rotting away. IF I could I would try to save them all... but I can’t. And really that’s okay. Hopefully someone will rescue it.
