I go by this almost everyday and had to take a picture. Private property so I was limited. I am going to try to contact the guy and get the vin. Looks like it was pulled out of the woods (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif)

There is another area of salvageable parts not discussed.
Cars that rust tend to have been driven/owned in areas that had wetter climates. Wet climates indicate more cloud cover. More cloud cover helps preserve vinyl and other bits of the interior. Often more difficult finding good interior parts...eg dashes....than mechanical or body parts. Tarps may promote rust, retained moisture, but may preserve other bits and pieces |

I could smell the mold from 20 feet away. |
