Abandoned: 1961 Oldsmobile Dynamic 88


This classic Olds belongs to my friend's dad in Canada. These pictures were taken in early 2010, and the car's still languishing in the same spot in a field as I write this. It was purchased in 2005, probably for very little money. It never ran, but the body looked solid and the interior was still in good shape. I don't expect it to go anywhere for a while and wish someone would save it.

One-Off Oddball: 1966 Chevrolet Corvair Limousine


This car, originally built and stretched by 3 feet in the 1980s, is offered by someone who is trying to clear out their projects. It appears to need side glass, interior work, a paint job, a vinyl top and some body work, the seller appears to be a Corvair enthusiast, and offers to complete the restoration for a new owner at the cost of time and materials. The car runs and drives, but needs the restoration completed.

Accessories for completing the interior can be found here, for a more modern look, or can be found on eBay if one desires a vintage look, and find it here for $1600 in Post Falls, Idaho (go here if ad disappears)
