The abandoned Fabulous Fifties cruiser above isn’t looking for fabulous these days but there is one improvement: that’s REAL wood on the dashboard instead of the cheesy fake stuff. Real wood under the hood, on the other hand, isn’t ideal. Flickr member Peter Ciro snapped the cool blue-green machine while visiting the Lakewood Forest Preserve in Wauconda, IL back in March of 2018.

Fix Or Repair Daily? Don’t forget to top up the fluids, and in this case we mean WATER. This abandoned Ford pick-em-up from the Seventies hasn’t moved since the Eighties and the passage of time definitely isn’t doing it any favors. Flickr member Taber Andrew Bain caught the vintage vehicle from Dinwiddie VA back in 2003… can you imagine how it looks now?

From tiny acorns, mighty oak trees grow… put that old chestnut to a heavy metal (or at least, RUSTY metal) beat and you’ve got an instant classic! Tip ‘o the cap to Flickr member Paul Gorbould. The photographer snapped this well-retired car and its bright green new “driver” from Halton, Ontario, Canada in April of 2009.
