Last they was knocking some garages down near me and they found a old Toyota in there rotting away. It's was Nottingham special but was a rare car with none registered on how many left. I could of had it but it was so rotten it needed so much money and work we couldn't even open door without the key.
It ended up fetching £2.5k on eBay as it was.
Also a garage near me in Heanor have a old Ford something can't remember what. It was a restoration project but he didn't have time for it.
Also anyone remember this [attachment=12959]
I was going to buy it but it disappeared. But now it's come back.

All aluminium shell, just left in the same field for 30 years after a rear end collision
Something like this

Have a look through this, hundreds of pages of abandoned stuff...
A bloke a couple of streets away from me has a mk1 Cavalier Coupe (the 2-door saloon not the Sportshatch) and a Manta 1.8 Berlinetta (basically the same car) sat on his drive, the Manta looks a bit rough but the Cavalier looks very saveable, but he won't sell, I've asked about 3-4 times

RE: Abandoned Automotive Awesomeness - Danny2009 - 21-01-2014
all them cars in that railway station
RE: Abandoned Automotive Awesomeness - RetroPug - 21-01-2014
The renault 5 gt looks saveable, it looks like it's somewhere hot & dry which would hopefully mean limited rust. The paintwork has bleached in the sun but that's ok and considering they are worth silly money these days I'd be inclined to restore it!
