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

Far as I know it's still sitting in that spot...it was way outta my price range lol. Buddy of mine took those pics a couple years ago. Completely original, low mileage car. The owner said 75k would buy it. Here's an interior shot thru the glass.

 

Back in the day we would install windows in sedan deliveries or panel vans/trucks just like that. Pick your size, lay on the template where you liked it and cut a hole. Then just install the glass with the rubber channel and a key rubber to lock it in. Dunno if it's still done. That's how the glass is held in place in the lid of my bead blast cabinet.

 

^^^^^^
That looks way better than what I started with.

 

The General consensus is that 200 Bonnevilles were equipped with the F.I. engine in '58.

 

Talked to a local small town auto parts guy Saturday ...told him I was building a model A and he said he had some things he wanted gone in his yard.
So I took a ride by, this is what I found.
F-6 dump only things is take are complete dash, column/box and pedals. The 8BA is in there also.
A GMC rack body something or other looked mostly complete also ...door was in the bed.

Im heading there today to get this out of his yard. It's worth the price ...Free.

Mikel, Boy I could use that dump truck for hauling stone for my mountain drive way here .No one wants to deliver stone here any more????Bruce.

 

Aftermarket. Many people hacked windows into delivery's to attempt an elimination of the dreaded blind spot.

 

Its funny, I have a house full of guest, watching the Super Bowl. And I'm on the HAMB. lol I'm more exited about this 32! What's the story? You can't leave us hanging. Ron...

 

Sorry, and this is all I have this week. lol Ron...

 

Ron, the 32 just popped up on the web and I shared it, no info on location or time the pic was taken....good stuff though

 

This just needs a blower

 

I saved these this weekend.

 

As seen in a photo contest in local newspaper.

 

How are the fenders on that fleetmaster?

 

These fenders are really nice. I'm trying to sell the whole car though. $750

 

I will be rescuing these...

 

waiting for someone else....

 

This is a different car right? That is a steal for 750.00 I wish I could pick it up.

 

Oh man! I'd love to drag home that C cab.

 

AHHH a BUICK! Bruce.

 

This is what happened to Santa Claus due to the climate change...

 

Here in Connecticut, that would be on Craigslist for an easy $4000 plus. I've seen similar in much worse condition (think 99.44/100% rust) going for close to $10k.

 

I wish someone would buy it then. I'm not much of an early chevy guy. Just trying to save them from the crusher.

 

Can't get to excited about the binder pickup but that 55 Buick looks good!

 

I'm with you Bruce, love them Buicks! I have a 55 Special I am tinkering with now.

 

Buick is getting crushed. Too many doors.
