casper50 Posted July 11, 2019 Report Posted July 11, 2019 Usually vintage vehicles parked by the side of the road are only for sale at 2 to 3 times what they are worth. To find the good ones you have to haunt back alleys and dirt roads. Quote

DonaldSmith Posted July 11, 2019 Report Posted July 11, 2019 Is that strap holding the fender up or the hood down? Or both? 1 Quote

Or both? good call…...But looking at the parting line on the hood I am guessing hood is off the hinges and thus strapped to keep it in position while they rip off a buyer, eeer sell this vehicle. Anyway, this is my take on the crime scene 1 Quote
Silverdome Posted July 11, 2019 Report Posted July 11, 2019 Maybe it's NOT FOR SALE and is just awaiting the day that it will be resurrected. I'm a glass half full kind of guy. Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted July 11, 2019 Report Posted July 11, 2019 I'm a half glass empty guy...as I know longer it sits with accounting for evaporation....(say rust in this instance) the less the glass will contain later.... Quote
_shel_ny Posted July 11, 2019 Report Posted July 11, 2019 Looks like "for sale" to me. Sign just fell down as the masking tape adhesive holding it up gave out from a week in the sun. Replace the cowl trim piece, and the plastic in the hood ornament, and it's ready to roll. It's a "driver", not a "show" car. Not everyday that you can find patina like that. Strap will keep that hood from flying up at 90mph. Quote
T120 Posted July 11, 2019 Report Posted July 11, 2019 Contrary to Neil Diamond's opinion - money not only talks,it does indeed sing and dance. If seriously interested in buying, settle on a price what you would be willing to pay and be prepared to close the deal..? Quote
Sam Buchanan Posted July 12, 2019 Author Report Posted July 12, 2019 (edited) Wow....post a cool photo of somebody's lawn decor....and watch the negative comments fly......tough crowd. ? I suspect the guy just enjoys seeing the old stuff every time he pulls into the lot, the place was overrun with antique archaeology. I'm going to give the feller the benefit of the doubt, hope he enjoys his treasures for as long as he wants. Edited July 12, 2019 by Sam Buchanan Quote

I like a good junkyard as much if not better than the next man.....but yard art, good yard art, is kept trimmed with a weed eater... Quote
Sam Buchanan Posted July 13, 2019 Author Report Posted July 13, 2019 (edited) The yard too must have patina my friend.... Edited July 13, 2019 by Sam Buchanan Quote

MarcDeSoto Posted July 13, 2019 Report Posted July 13, 2019 Maybe these cars are meant to be yard art along with the garden gnomes and pink flamingos. Looks like a nice 41 Ford there. or they could be waiting for Mike and Frank to come by and say "were looking for rusty gold. Where some people just see junk, we see the history of America. 41 Fords haven't been around for decades and even though it's a little sweaty, its antique patina still shines through. Would $30,000 take it? Quote
