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

^^^what's the old truck cab behind the 60?

 

this thing was buried in 20’ of bush. Had to cut down all the trees. Move a 30’ pile of steel and get it out. Paid a $100 for it and sold it for $500. Spent 8hrs don’t think it was worth my time haha

RUSTY1 It's a 40 Chevy pickup, and it looked solid. Said to make offer. This 41 Olds is sitting in the woods near Stanley Va. It's rough but it's probably a freebie.

Wow the plastic rotted almost completely off of the wheel!

 

Did you just leave the coupe there?

 

That shed is standing like a guy that's had too much to drink.

 

Damn, I could probably use parts from that! My wife and I are looking at properties in NC right now (wife is visiting daughter in Durham and looked at a piece of land in Cedar Grove today!) and we will be moving there in about three years. Can't wait to cruise the back roads looking for rusty gold!

 

Ah ....That's a '41 Olds ........

 

56 sedan delivery. for some reason the bright work on the 56,s all gets rusty? ive got three 56 chevys and not enough parts to put together even one driver quality front cap.

 

That's OK, I have a 47 and I'm guessing there are a few things that will interchange.

 

I would like to have a 59 or1960 389 mill. My 55 GMC 287 stick shift bell and flywheel would work on it.

 

Unfortunately it was sold when I got there.

Saw this wagon the other day while getting rid of some scrap metal at the recycle yard.
The ChevyII was at an old salvage yard

 

1957 Studebaker??? Looks like a really solid wagon. Perhaps an abandoned project??? Sure hope it doesn't get scrapped.

 

This '57 was on an abandoned property but unfortunately I didn't get it in time.........it went to the scrapper!

 

This 55 GMC was setting and rotting in my hoard until yesterday. My 4 year old grandson and I put tires on it and fired it up and drove it around to the shop. Its very rusty in the cab floors. I do have a 59 dump truck cab that is very solid. There is a potential buyer coming to look at it this week. Ive got too many projects. this truck has a strong running original 287 Pontiac mill. The last picture is on the solid 59 cab.

 

Although quite similar, this is a 1956 Studebaker Champion Pelham Wagon The grille is considerably different on the 1957 models. My dad owned one of these in the white over Seafoam Green paint scheme.

 

In case anyone else is getting a broken PB link:

I spotted this one in the yard of an abandoned property on Walnut Ave. in Pasadena thirty years ago:

The others were a base model '56 Hawk (no fins) and an early Lark. Don't know if they got saved, but the property was scraped clean - house and all - shortly after. I watched for them in the nearby Pick-A-Part but no luck.

 

I saw these along side the road. Both were for sale. KINDA ROUGH though.

These are sitting close to my shop. The pickup is a 29 or so chevy.

 

What is up with that late 40s Plymouth truck? Factory or did someone convert it?The black Stude is cool too!

 

Check the guys address

 

Dang...56/57 Studebaker wagon's are scarce....check the production #'s and that's one reason.......

 

Just some interesting photos I found while loitering around Google images.
