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

There is a guy in town that pulled a lot of 49-51 mercs 59 Chevy convertible and bunch of Buick’s and caddy’s out of this yard in 95-96. My merc was one of them. Had to replace the frame and floor in it. Badly rusted out.

 

What are the prices like in that yard? Interested in the 57 hardtop and 1 or 2 others

 

His prices are okay, I never tried to buy a car from him.

 

Please go back in the Summertime and take the pics again !!!!!!

Someone needs to rescue this 33 3/W Jalopy! Lots of work to jack that roof back in place and fab sail panels, but it's savable. Still has a floor w/ seat tracks so it may be sitting above water line.
Shame some of those good cars were parked in a swamp.

 

Pretty sure it got rescued last year.

Looks like the transmission is still in it. I think I see a shift handle....or a twig that just looks like a handle....lol.

 

That 1928-29 DB Victory Six sedan still has some good sheet metal left on it.

 

Before Friday, the last time I was in that yard was the late 90’s.... I’ll get you new pics in 2039.

Doesn't look like it has a frame, probably no transmission in it, so yeah, I'm sure that is a "stick" shift you're seeing!

 

No frame. The body was sitting on a couple hoods keeping it out of the swamp.

Someone get some swim gear on and pull some of those out. There's still a lot of good metal there. For patching etc.

 

I'm surprised these bodies aren't rusted to Swiss cheese.

 

But I would bet the metal is pretty thin.

 

That's funny......I took that pic, and posted it on this thread several years ago......
FWIW, I had a '32 sedan that was pulled from the same area years ago. Just rust molecules holding hands......even the parts above the waterline.

 

you montana guys dont know what rust is! common over to the salt encrusted frozen swamp and we'll show ya some rust!
