I have a thing for old cars, trucks and farm equipment sitting in fields rotting away. I always have my eyes peeled when on the backroads. I knew of this old '56 Chevy sitting in a ravine and planned on grabbing some photos. Wouldnt you know it, BOTH of my batteries were dead on my DSLR camera...guess I havent used it for a while. I ended up snapped this with my Iphone.

I'm searching for more abandoned car shots - If anyone knows of any good subject matter I can photograph on or near the west side of the GTA, please let me know. 

Got any good ones?? Post away!

Nice shot of the 56.  I'm always on the hunt for them as well, post quite a few on Flickr.

Great pics! I could look at these all day... its a shame seeing them in this state, but there's something about them... if only they could talk.

Hey 57150... would you be able to disclose the location of that Diamond-T truck? Could it be for sale... or could parts bought off of it?

 That's at the wreckers in Lakefield.  I think he said the price was $1500. as it sits.  Not sure about parts.

Thanks for the info 57150! That's not too far away... I may have to look into it. I'm mainly interested in the grille if they would just sell that? Thanks again!
