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

^^^Question...is that a '55 or '56?^^^

 

oddly, here's a model I started a few years ago...

 

That's a 55 for sure.

 

Very rare Hudson Pickup

One that got away.

Hurts to see a custom Merc sitting in the woods like this. I wish you could have gotten it, but at least I sure hope "got away" means it's not still laying there, or crushed.

 

Well it’s not in the woods anymore but it got parted out and the rest was cut up. I tried getting from the owners daughter after he passed away but he apparently promised it to another guy. It needed a total restoration but I love 49-51 Mercs and I would’ve brought it back to life!

 

Shame. I sure hope every piece went to a good home. It was rough but not that rough, I've started with worse stuff.

 

Lawrence County Alabama.

 

^^^^^^ Packard convertible. Worth a bit of money.

 

Now at the shop being saved.

 

Elmore County Alabama.

I'll say; only 1 factory built. There've been a few copies tho (as evidenced here).

 

That is a chicken coupe!

 

Not again... That has been on here several times. Its a fiberglass car according to the previous postings.

 

-Of course! If it was a four-door, it'd be a chicken sedan!



Doc.

 

Humber Super Snipe ( what a name ) bulldozed to hell and the grille is virtually untouched

 

Oh well, win some, lose some. I don't recall seeing it before so it was new to me. I found it on some obscure website so I thought it might be a good one to post.

 

Glad you did.

 

I would hazard a guess that the hole was cut there deliberately for the stovepipe and the car was used for ice fishing. Seen it beforr, but usually with a station wagon.
