WEEDS HAVE TAKEN OVER

Near Temple, TX

Saw a car and truck graveyard on the way home today outside of Temple, TX. Immediately thought of Mike Stobbs so I took the next exit, turned around and got out and took a few pics. There's a few more that are pretty cool! Mike, I think you'd like this place!

My parents had a 1960 Bel Air station wagon. They were made by Chevolet

That long tail & lights says Belair...and I'm not up with cars. Good find, Cindi.
Guest 21-Oct-2008 08:24
I can disagree with the idea of leaving it there, but I can only agree on the very graphic aspect of this find!

I saw the pic and immediately thought of Stobbs

This is 1963 Chevy Belair that most likely came with a 230 6 cylinder and three on the tree...thanks Cindi for the shout out on this super find....Mike

Way to go Cindi...you found a diamond in the rough! You always find fun and amazing things.

In these tough times...that might be someone's current home!

Looks like kind of a cool old 50's car, to be sitting in the middle of all these weeds. Love the way the paint is wearing off.
Guest 21-Oct-2008 02:53
Oh, that's where I left it!
Guest 21-Oct-2008 02:52
Weeds will inheret the earth... poor them.
Robin Reid21-Oct-2008 02:17
Oh, I thought this was your old car you traded in for the jeep.
Guest 21-Oct-2008 02:08
Now that is an old one!! love the tall weeds...V
Guest 21-Oct-2008 02:07
Needs some TLC... nice shot. Jv

Hi Cindi,
This is the only way to find an old car. A wonderful shot!! I love this scene. \/
Guest 21-Oct-2008 01:43
Bout a 60's Chevrolet ??? Someone could have a lot of fun and sink a lot of money in this.
Deborah Lewis21-Oct-2008 01:38
Great find!

nice rusty toning! They should make cars with colors like these!~

I think this one will need a little more than soap and water.
