Art & Inspiration As seen on the road.

Sometimes you can see some interesting stuff on the road. Post yours up.

 

Cool.... 55 Elkay.

 

Exactly what I thought! I was surprised to see it, not something you run across every day.

 

Saw this headed home last week... Snapped a pic in case it's a fellow hamber. Sorry about the dash glare, but I couldn't hold up traffic to keep trying again. Always good to see your own car cruising at least.

 

Nice Olds!

 

At a gas station on highway 30. It's a 2 door and there is another one out back in the weeds.

 

Today I saw this sitting along the highway. I saw the tarp and convertible sprang to mind. I stopped and saw the four doors. I snapped the picture and left.

 

A car lot in Nebraska. I've stopped there a couple of times but both times were on a Sunday and there wasn't a soul around. On my list of places to stop back at whenever I get through there again.
The first time I stopped:


And a coupe of years later:

 

That would be a cool place to stop in at. It doesn't look like he moves much inventory though.

 

This just appeared at a salvage yard that I sometimes haul by. I hate to think what it's fate is.

 

its fate would be better if you bought it.

 

Crashfarmer-
What kind of rig are you driving? Don't know many cars that have rivets all down the hood.
Keep On Truckin'!

 

That's the same Cab as a 1940 1/2 ton pickup. Someone should save it.

Pete 356?

 

Saw this on the road in Rome!

 

Here is one from last night! In Norwalk CT.

 

Crossing the Kingston Rhinecliff Bridge 2010.
My 1953 Chevrolet and my friends 324 Olds powered 40 Ford Hot Rod survivor!

 

To the OP, awesome idea for a thread. Really enjoying it so far

 

Someone had this out on the street in front of my house

 

Looks like an Abandoned Vehicle. Better call the County so they can Haul it away for ya.

It's a Pete, I spend a lot of time looking over that hood.

Trying to decide if this is a 1933 or 1934. I took this picture yesterday just after I fueled up.

 

34.

 

Green '55 sitting outside a muffler shop in Lawrence , Mass. a couple of years ago- bone stock and looked like it hadn't seen daylight for a while.( I can't remember what year the inspection sticker said.)Check out the snow tires!
Second pic---A neat little trailer someone made- Model A bed, '35 wires, and rolling on a complete "A" front end. It was next to a cornfield in Haverhill Mass. I kept going by whenever I was in the area and one day the owner was driving his tractor in the field, I flagged him down, and bought it for $100. bucks.

 

I'd LOVE to have that 55!

 

Another "find"- I pulled into a parking lot behind an auto body place on a Sunday to take a leak, and saw the ass end of this sticking out of a snowbank next to a dumpster. Took down the shop's number and called Monday. Seems someone had given the bike to the owner as part payment for a job and never came back. He says"You want that f#@*king thing? Give me a grand and get it the F$#% out of here!"Brand new "Paucho" hardtail frame, new rims and tires, and a nice front end? In my truck and GONE! Funniest thing is I traded it to a guy who painted a car for me as part payment on the job!
The red shovelhead was in a trailer park under a plastic table cloth for years.Finally talked to the owner and got it for $2500. bucks with paperwork. Cleaned it up, new battery, and it ran pisser. Sold to a guy in NY. ( should have kept it- DUH). Always LOOKING! lots of amazing stuff out there!

 

this is what the road looked like in Texas

 

Is that Clyde Barrow in the "C-dan"??----- Great picture.

 

very cool thread
