Technical Partially Buried Car ID?

Weekends coming up.
I hope by the end of it, we get to see it dug out.
We don't have snakes down here, can't help but wonder what a weedwacker would do to a snake.

 

Now this one I would say is buried! Friend dug it up just for the kicks.

 

I could use that deck lid if you find that you don't need it. Got a lid-less 34 that would match it perfectly.

 

this was partially buried!

 

I'd cut the back window out and hang it on the wall.

 

When in doubt.....deploy the purple hippopotamus. (HAMBERS are hardcore)

 

Found this pic on the net of a friend of mine where he and his brother dug up this 57 convertible a few years ago here in ky.

 

Whatever happened with this one? Is it yard art somewhere or were they crazy enough to put it on the road?!

 

39 chevy.

 

I still tell the story about that thread from time to time....I think that is the most I have ever laughed out loud reading something on the net....

 

They covered it back up and it was a GMC.

 

Is there a thread on the rest or do you have more pictures?

 

I want to dig this Olds up. I want to bring it home no matter what, just for the story.

 

If it casts a shadow it can be restored . Right?

 

No thread about it that I know of and thats all the pics, (my friend may have more)The car was on the side of where a old road was dozed out and they just covered the car up and left it years ago until my buddies dug it up, (they did hire a backhoe after these pics were taken to make shorter work of it) they have all kinds of tri fives but I think they may have sold this one or what was left of it,
Im pretty sure most of the convertible parts were salvaged and used.

 

I went looking for the purple hippo thread... no luck... where is it?

 

Found the thread! BUT! the pictures are dead! bummer....

 

I don't see anything there that would count as scrap. What is visible of the back section of the car there could easily be cut up to make patch panels to fix cars with rotted out windows, roof sections, windshield frames, wrinkled quarters, creased or rotten body lines, etc. I say patch panels because if you can fit it in a box and ship it, someone will eventually buy it from you on epay because they NEED THAT PIECE. It looks like you might even have doors there. Even if they're mangled and rotten, the hinges are worth something and junk doors can hang on a wall.

It looks like there may even be a chance of there being enough to it to start a build out of. You could probably build an old beater racer with that body at any rate.

 

KiwiJeff,

I got permission and a BOS for 3 dollars, I'm just waiting on weather and friend with time to help.

 

Forgive me but what is a BOS?

 

Bill of sale
Big ole shlong
Bought old shovel
Bring own shovel

"For 3 dollars" is the clue

 

??? whats this about. I don't remember any such thread.

 

Holy hippo don, you haven't been on the hamb until you've read the hippo thread. No spoilers, go find it

 

I think one of the above you are just born with. If you could get one for $3 there'd be quite a market....

 

I can't find it . Thats why I asked. Nothing comes up in a search for it.

Hippopotamus thread

 

I guess I missed it when it was a new thread, the funny pics must have been on Page 3 but they are gone now.

 

Yea, I sent him a pm and asked if he could fix that

 

Oh yeah, I remember that thread now. Thanks. I forgot about it. I forget a lot at my age.
