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

No worries! That indentation on the passenger side (for us yanks) of the cowl makes it a late '31.

 

I love this grill !

 

Learn something new everyday! HEHE

 

Is this in Saskatchewan? What are they asking?

 

and guess where I learned it ?

 

I remember that from our Kauai vacation 6 years ago... same story, same answer. My wife was mildly pissed that during our getaway to the islands, I was knocking on doors about old cars... "and just how in the hell are you gonna ship it back to Northern CA, dear?"

Here's a shot of the same car from 2005...

 

Man I love the cabs on those diamond t's, so gangster looking. Man that truck has a ton of potential. There is a nice diamond t close to where my dads farm is, I'm really thinking about it

 

a Volvo p1800 '62

 

hehe, this is pretty crazy, and sad of course.
Nice picture tough.

 

Pretty close...your "olds 2 door" is actually a 38 Pontiac 2 door

 

MY first car, MOM's really, we had the slant ?? 4, left half of 326, block cut and 1/8" plate sealed up. 164 hp, 164 tq, 4 barrel and a rear mounted corvair transaxle and about 4' for drive line after the clutch and IRS

 

Rocky, you are rite. It is a 38 Pontiac. Pat.

 

Here is a whole pile of nice old metal near me just rotting away...








Here is a link to my photobucket with a ton more pics..

Hmm, going by those tail-lights its a 60-62 Mk2 Zephyr.

 

I had the same tail lights on both of my 59 Zephyrs IIRC, but I could not remember the Zodiac tail lights.

 

This thread makes me cry!

What a lot of waste...

 

You might be right - I always thought the earlier 'hi-line' Mk2's had the smaller tai-lights but man thats' a while ago!

 

I'm no authority on them, great little cars though!

I sold them long ago, but now I have a pair of 59 Taunus 12M Supers!

 

psychopathic51, you should score the 9" rear outta that box bronco...

It's not stopping any soil loss anymore! I talked the old guy into selling!

 

Awesome

 

sweet!

 

Here's some sitting and rotting I came across yesterday in Paulding County, Ohio. Used to be able to find more but when steel and aluminum prices jumped a lot of cars were hauled to the local scrap yard.

 

...

 

that light blue coupe is a 1960 Edsel - rarest of the rare!

 

Looks like it's a bit too far gone to save.

(again all for sale)

 

when I was looking at the pictures, I was thinking thats gotta be Saskatchewan. And sure enough.

 

These cars have a heart and soul, man. Though some may never make it they're all trying to find that lost highway.
