just passing time on the curbside in Argentina and Uruguay, from aptly named Fossils Mechanical, by Gabriel and his friends

Notice this cab is chained to the tree

and this is cabled to something out of the shot

the above and the below pair are Mercedes

Above 1938 Ford
The above 2cv Citreon has a unique story, there is a special compartment under the seat where it's owners ashes were put, as his dying wish was to be a part of the car, and the city, until it may be towed away. (Doesn't look like towing is a big priority)

1934 Ford

Above, 1960 panhard that was pulled out of storage
If you enjoy the wonder of what is just over the next hill, around the next bend, and on the next block that is waiting for someone to notice and fix up, you'll enjoy http://fosilesmecanicos.blogspot.com/

Tribute recreation of the "California Kid" was at SEMA

Tribute built to look like the 1934 Ford by Pete Chapouris of Pete and Jake fame...

http://66.154.44.164/forum/showthread.php?t=529856&page=3 has the details of how and why is obvious

the car was made famous in 1973 when Martin Sheen (Charlie Sheen's dad) drove the cops into submission in a movie named "California Kid" (good movie, but slow)
The story takes place in 1958, and involves a town, Clarksburg, California, with a famous speed trap, in which a disturbed Sheriff Roy Childress (Vic Morrow), whose wife and daughter were killed by a speeder, turns bad, with a habit of deliberately punishing speeders by pushing their cars off the mountain highway in his 1957 Plymouth Belvedere.

Challenging the sheriff, who tries to run him off the road. McCord is ready, knowing his car's limits for the curve, and the sherriff is a victim of his own obsession, going too fast to make the deadly turn. He drives off the cliff, while McCord manages to stop. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_California_Kid

Sun Tach transmitter, rare find I think

I think the tach built into the dash is a cool look

The bumper piece is from a swap meet

Awesome, I've never seen one of these Blue Streak Aircooled Super coil
