Old scrapped cars
« on: November 25, 2007 - 08:00:24 PM »
Here are some of the cars that have come through my hands over the years. You can see why they are gone now :scared:

1972 Dodge Challenger Rallye 340, AT, Code TB3=Super Blue, SBD=8/17/1971.  Yes, a Rallye without the fender louvers from the factory because of the body side molding option.

Good golly!!!!  I hadnt ever seen cars with rust like that. The state you live in didnt kill the cars, it was the chemicals they must of used on the roads that did.   What a shame :violin:

I stripped each of these car down to the very last useable part so at least they were good for some thing.

I am glad that some of the parts were used for a good cause anyway.  It is really sad to see those that way.  Some people do not know how to take care of a car.
Got a pretty good start on my M46 optioned Barracuda restoration but now it is on hold till I can gather more funds.  Still need a few parts for it.  SIU Graduate 75 AAS Automotive Tech, 94 BS Advanced Tech Studies, 1997 MSED Workforce Education and Development
