My first thought for the top picture was a pontiac......but I have a feeling that if it was Clive would have known that. When you have nothing better to do you could go hunting at this site.

The hood ornament didn't ring a bell, but the steering wheel says Pontiac to me. I wish it was a law that all vehicles had those wonderful steering wheels of the old cars.

Thanks Clive! Helen was right, you would know. It's across the road from me in a deep gully that was once part of the town dump, which is long abandoned. Back in the day when EVERYTHING went in a dump that wasn't a dump but a gully that was out of sight out of mind.... There are several old vehicles down there. I thought Chevrolet because what was left of the grille had a T.

A little bit of paint and polish and maybe a new set of plugs and you would have a much better car than the dealerships can sell you. I don't know why I didn't see it at first; but, on a second look, it just jumps out at me; I can plainly see the profile of the Pontiac Indian on that hood emblem.

They need a bit more than plugs! No engines, tires, glass, interiors - the list goes on. Most look like they could have been in a shoot out with Bonnie & Clyde!
