  2. Old salvage yard auction in the first two pics. Last one parked in a backyard near Tontitown, Arkansas. Has been sitting for several years. Sadly, not for sale 20150501_102428.jpeg 20150501_102255.jpeg 20150430_162442.jpeg

  4. Those Nazi's were so bad! (I hate those guys.) Sad and scary photos. Here's a model A pickup. I think it's still being used as a farm truck. I didn't want to trespass. So sorry, I couldn't take any closeup pictures. Ron..... 20190311_150507.jpeg 20190312_074603.jpeg 20190312_074949.jpeg

    Reminds me of one a neighbor of ours had when they purchased the farm across the street from us, back when I was a kid (mid to late 60s.) The wife drove it for a few years, until there was an "issue" with it, then it was parked in the front yard. The Packard became one of many cars, trucks, tractors, etc. that became "I'm going to fix that one of these days..." Sadly, I think most of this stuff went to the scrap after they both passed.

    It's a 32, I posted pictures of those 2 cars a couple years ago on this post. The ruins of this city is the eeriest place I've ever been, the silence is really heavy and the weird part is as you move away from this place you start to hear birds, but in the city : nothing at all, just silence.
     
  7. Wow... Thanks for your comment... Really appreciate the details... I would like to see the pictures...

  14. What's the story on this 55 delivery? I've been trying not to drag anymore stray cars home. But I could't have left without that one! :rolleyes: Ron... Here's a sitting and rotting Packard I spotted this week. It's been sitting in the pasture on a farm, for a long long time. But it needs saveing!!! 20190315_072608.jpeg 20190315_072844.jpeg

    That was 2005, out in the Arickaree breaks in Northwest Kansas, my guess is its still sitting there but man oh man I would have a hard time finding it, took the photo while meandering the countryside.

  25. This cool old chevelle was parked in 1972 and been sitting in this opened carport. The owner said that it's not for sale. Life has just always got in the way. I told him, that he really needs to put it back on the road. It would be an easy build. He has everything. A built 327 and, 4 speed tranny. I told him I'd be glad to help him any way I can. He's 77 years old. It even has the old flat drag slicks still on it! Such a COOL car!!!:) 20190311_143151.jpeg 20190311_143215.jpeg 20190311_143140.jpeg 20190311_143423.jpeg

    This old firetruck is at Bonnie Springs Ranch west of Las Vegas. I was surprised to see cast aluminum engine parts on it.
