things dont rot away too quickly if you dont let grass or weeds grow under them .. it`s wet a lot in the spring and super hot in summer ..that fairlane has been sitting for at least 25 years ..grass conducts static electricity that litterally etches away metal ..

Those two Cougars behind the Fairlane would be welcome down here too..We know a guy who probably wouldnt say no to a couple more.. I guess there is still quite a lot of iron left up there,if you know where to look..

yes .. they let cougars rot away also

And a 63 Galaxie,,next you will tell me its a 390/4sp too...
Cougars dont look too bad though.Anything else there that I can cry over?

I can't understand it, why do people hang on this stuff. It's gotta be worth something to someone rather than just rustin' away.

Make me a offer !! Thay can go any time now !

actually that 63 is a bit unique it belonged to the wife of the local ford dealor all it`s life .. it`s a very low mileage 4 door 390 hardtop with bucket seats and console and floor shift automatic .. now this 62 is a genny 390 4 speed car ..

I could put up with an auto to get a car like that,and the 62 is a kool old car..Have a friend a few hours up the highway with a 62 like that one,bronze paint,352/auto,imported last year with a 59 Galaxie 2dr h/t,and a 76 Dodge pickup,now he has to sell one of them and he doesnt know which one to keep,greedy boy...

Here's a few from my favorite place yard

any clue what this was ?

Yellow,plastic front bumper,plastic side mouldings thru bottom of sides,2dr,and very much disliked,going by the lowering method...

how bout a little boss rust

I showed the other pix to a friend down the road from me,he has a 69 notchback,and his father in law has five Mustangs as well...Mark with the 69 wants to sell his house and wife and kids and come to Alabama,Mustang hunting,this last pic will really upset him...

one more from the mustang yard then on to other types ..yes that`s a fastback in the weeds ,,
