    That car is still salvageable. It looks as good as the one in my avatar did when I got it.

  17. There’s not much left of that XK. You sure have some very aggressive metal eaters down under.

    It's in a low area of the park, so it sits in water a bit (it would be sitting in water right now with lots of recent rain) and it has probably been partially burnt in a fire in the park; the two-speed auto is still there ... I got a (bent) stainless steel window surround from it and I used a hammer and cold chisel to hack out a bit of sheet metal from the radiator support panel that might or might not be useful to me ... probably not; decades ago there must have been more cars dumped there. There are a few other car bits that I will post here.

    I am convinced that many of these cars were abandoned or junked because one or more windows would no longer go up. LoL

    Another remnant in the Melbourne park; I can't identify it. Any ideas? 008.JPG
     
  23. Something 4 door, British and probably ugly like a 1950s Singer or Vanguard.

  27. It’s a mid to late’70’s Checker because of the big fugly bumpers. The original design goes back to 1960.
