Thanks
I knew it was something from GM, I couldn't put my finger on what it was.
I tried to find more info on where that pic is from but I can't I anything, everything go back to where I found it. http://jezzbean.wordpress.com/2010/01/02/20-lost-forgotten-cars-of-the-world/

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.
Moar barn finds, this Opel rox teh sox:
DS19:
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.
EDIT: Found a link that explains it better:

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.
1967 Plymouth Belvedere:
Very rare Consul Capri coupe, waking up after a decades-long nap:
Blue Flame six 'Vette... or what's left of it:

This thread needs a health advisory! So many rare, cool or just nice cars rusting away.

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.

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?
Finally someone pointed that out.
Leave me alone, I like to curse but AUP lol.

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.

Man, you're missing all the cool pic dumps. Keep browsing!
Like:

A dentist would become rich if he checked this thing out.
Renault 4CV:
58 Chevy
the green one is more or less easy, but many extra points for the guy that correctly names the oxide-red car.
This picture is beautiful, got damn:
and finally, the icing in the cake:
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...
Heck, check this out!!! a REAL Dana Camaro!! This guy hit it hard.
Amd while we're on Dana Camaros, this is like a local legend now, this Camaro recently surfaced over here in Mexico:
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.
