That would be a 1960 Cadillac.

Got damn with the Airflow. It looks like freaking new, look at that paint!

Also, pretty interested in the Toronado beside the Caddy!
 
And you should hear me when I find abandoned cars in real life. It's much more AUP unfriendly.

Yet another picture of that portuguese barn with 400 or so cars inside. Extra points for every car you can name.

Yes, it's true, it'a one of the 917 Porsches used in the Le Mans film, this made a lot of noise like ten years or so ago but I didn't remember, until I found this pic. The car has been already restored.

Check out this heavily optioned 59 Impala, it's incredibly complete, got damn. I wish I could find something as nice as this in a barn.

I know this won't mean too much to most people, but for a '32 enthusiast like me, a B400 ragtop sedan is like the needle oin the haystack. One of a few thousand made, these cars are extremely rare and highly sought after by ford collectors and hot rodders alike. This thing is amazing.

So... many... cars.... WASTED! Why! I guess people do not see the value in cars until its too late.

Come to think of it, the cars we drive now will be sought after in 50 years time. Hard to think as I do not like very many cars made these days.
 
At least it's for sale. I've received the "no for sale" answer more times than I care to count now.
 
I cannot think of words that properly display how peculiar these pictures make me feel. I'm upset, but I also see it as a form of art, dare I say beautiful .
 
Just posted these in my gallery and SVX told me to post it here so here is my uncle's abandoned Porsche 928 4s











Sorry if these are a lot of shots.​

My uncle took it to the repair shots a couple of months ago, and they told him to come back later for it. He came back and found out that the computer was stolen.

The lowlife who owns that Hudson needs to be shot on the spot.
3 years ago I found the same model online, but they asked to much for it, otherwise I would own one of those now.

ooo awesome car, awesome set of pictures (really, they are pretty good) and awesome story. Ok not awesome, but you get the idea. Does your uncle plan to return the car to the road?

yeah, he's trying to get a new computer but it's hard to find. Another problem is the weather. You know here in Kuwait it's hot approxamitely all the year and the car doesn't work really well in this weather so he can't drive it until the winter.

the green one is more or less easy, but many extra points for the guy that correctly names the oxide-red car.

I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE 70s psycheedelic street freaks. This car really breaks my heart.
 
That Torino is downright depressing. I love the rear Cragars.

speaking of Torinos...

Amd while we're on Dana Camaros, this is like a local legend now, this Camaro recently surfaced over here in Mexico:
dick-guldstrand69Z28.jpg

Surprise, it's a Dana-prepped 302 Z28 Camaro that was raced by none other than Dick Guldstrand, and somehow made it's way to a mexican garage to be used as trash bin. It has already returned to USA and is being properly and expensively restored.

I'll post moar tomorrow.
 
oooo nice find, thanks! It indeed looks like the very same car. Awesome to see such an enthusiast taking care of it, I'm sure it'll be in like new condition soon.
