I'm looking for a big old classic car, actually just the back half of one! 50's or 60's cars are a must, can be a little rusty on the out side and rotted out on the inside, just looks decent from the outside. Also complete bumper, trim, glass, depending on the car. Price wise I'm looking to spend as little as possible, a couple hundred at most.:D What do you guys have rotting away in your backyard that is unrestoreable?

4eyed hit it right on the nose:thumbsup. I've never noticed the guy in Cudhay, The guy on Humbolt and Center gave me the idea. Something with fins is a plus!! Thanks for the links but those cars are way too nice to cut up and stick in my front yard. now this is just an idea I have,i have no idea what thecity will have to say about this.

I remember when the guy bought the caddy to restore, but it was too far gone to restore easily, so he cut it up and stuck it in his yard. He has a vw bug and a model a in his yard too but i think that is a tad much! I grew up in that neighborhood, so I see it all the time and that is what gave me the idea!! Not trying to steal ideas or anything, but I think it takes some balls to do something that different but still pretty dam cool.

I have the back of a 57 Chevy, but I am going to make a couch out of it when I get the car done.
