Sure, there are some usefull bits there, but i think it would be a real shame to strip them out. They looked great sitting up on that hill left to die. Loved this 48's engine trans(plant) ;D (http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h24/crossply/P1030697.jpg) (http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h24/crossply/P1030709.jpg) (http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h24/crossply/P1030694.jpg) The FC's id tag for those interested (http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h24/crossply/P1030693.jpg) (http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h24/crossply/P1030711.jpg) (http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h24/crossply/P1030712.jpg) (http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h24/crossply/P1030702.jpg) There is some pretty old stuff lurking in there (http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h24/crossply/P1030700.jpg) (http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h24/crossply/P1030714.jpg) My very tolerant Wife patiently waiting at the roadside while I "waste time looking at old pieces of junk" ::) :D Cheers, Paul Title: Re: Car Graveyard Post by: customFC on April 19, 2010, 11:20:04 PM Nice pics Paul

Title: Re: Car Graveyard Post by: crossply on April 20, 2010, 09:28:08 AM Geez, i was more worried about snakes in the long grass, but shotguns! :o
i bet he's sick of people asking about them, they do look inviting. Paul Title: Re: Car Graveyard Post by: FCRB26 on April 20, 2010, 02:23:25 PM Yes very cranky old man people stealing of a night and always bugging him.
He was extremely angry old man with a healthy looking shotgun. there is a couple more good car spots around their off the main road. we picked up a 1910 Dodge the other day. Lots of old trucks ect. I have a scrap dealer next to my workshop so i get dibs on all the old cars a E38 RT charger came in the other day i could not believe it went straight over thinking tags and it was a written off mock up nothing salvagable. Damm Title: Re: Car Graveyard Post by: JB on April 22, 2010, 12:07:26 PM Old trucks has me interested... 1937 Chevy 1 and a half ton truck I am looking for... preferably running if you cross one.
Cheers JB Title: Re: Car Graveyard Post by: FCRB26 on April 22, 2010, 01:07:25 PM There is a big chev but its too big.
I sold my 38 fargo trying to get another now. One of my workers just got a jailbar looks good. I know of a smick no rust 1 owner 38 austin screamer 6 cyl 1/1/2 ton old bloke is old and he built the shed around it so it needs dismantling. Title: Re: Car Graveyard Post by: Not Happy Jan on April 22, 2010, 09:35:25 PM I have driven past that place so many times about 25 years ago when I drove the Broke road when I was working in Inverell in 1985. Always slowed down to look.
He was cranky back than! :D Title: Re: Car Graveyard Post by: lucky_gwen on April 23, 2010, 06:53:50 PM Not Happy Jan - love the little fairy spiderman dancing you have there. Very cute.
