Some you might relate to.





Pic of a sad wife and frankenstiva where I found it. The guy wouldnt sell the rest of the festivas.


LX below, I saved the console.


Another pic of frank behind the demo car.

Oh the humanity !!








Its the mission statement of the ranch to save these car but you can only do so much with people like this. More pics to come.

Websites like that make me crazy. So much automotive history rusting away.

Nice pics of Frankenstiva. Are the others still sitting out there, or are they gone. Atleast you saved one of them.

I havent been back out there since I hauled Franky off. I thought about going back and showing the guy what I did with Frankenstiva in hopes that he'd give me a shot at the others.

76,000 on the one below. Guy would sell the others but not this one because it was an auto. Go figure

[batstiva]

Is that the same set of cars, or different ones? I've got 8 Festies not too far from me gathering rust. The guy won't come off of them, but his wife wants them gone. Myself and Shadetree are working on him. Figure eventually we will wear him down and he'll give them up just to get rid of us.:p

Just hope that happens before they are too far gone.

[freshtiva]

No thats a different set of cars. About 60 miles east of the first one. People like that tick me off. They wont do any thing with the cars but they wont let anyone else rescue them either.

BTW the tires that go to it that are on the inside are 10 inch's! Didnt even know they made them that size for the road.

My brother has a pristine 600z, and has to get new tires for it, they're almost $100 each!!

My contribution to this thread. Camera died at a 70 Chevelle 307, so that one will have to wait. Was brought to a garage 10 or 12 years ago. Garage went under, and the car has been sitting in the weeds ever since. I'm sure there's little if any floor left in it. Anyway, enjoy. I guess.





Technically not abandoned, but I'm counting them anyway. Probably only a matter of time before the crusher finds them.







Definitely abandoned. Would have gotten closer, but the Rotti had other ideas.





I have tried off and on for years to lay hands on this truck. Owner has been going to fix it up for, oh 15 years now.





One for the school bus fans on here.



Definitely not abandoned. But way to hot to pass up.



And finally, the ones that really kind of piss me off. Just because. You'll see.





















And a gratuitous picture of Orphan Annie. Just because.

There's more abandoned festys in WV than driving in the whole state of ALA!
Thats madness^ Thankfully Im saving 3 this week from the crusher!
