letting it ruin

There are plenty of them still out there. One sits across the parking lot of my shop.
The guys son left a 67 Dart GT 360 Magnum in it for about 5 years now. Flat tires,and rusty Cragars.
Won't sell but won't do anything with it either.

This one has Florida plates and department of defense sticker on the windshield its been sitting there about 8 months they won't respond to notes that are left from various people
 
We had a shop down the street with a 383, 4 speed, Cuda sitting out in front by the street for years. He got asked so many times if it was for sale that he put a big sign on it saying, no, it's not for sale. Rather than move it, it sat there for many more years. He's lucky it didn't get stolen.
 
I've tried numerous times to buy cars from people like that. I watched the scrap yard come get one after the old man passed. By that time the car was too far gone to do anything with it, totally a shame if you ask me! 440'
 
I only looked inside full cage nitrous bottle big as a propane tank was always curious about whats under the hood
 
Guess I don't understand the post, it appears to be parked somewhere where it won't have grass growing up around it or deteriorating quickly? All kinds of reasons why one could leave a car parked for 8 months, hell my Charger sat for 3 years before I got all of my ducks in a row.
 
I find this topic a waste of Joey's bandwidth, I'm with 747 on this!
 
Is the DoD sticker on the windshield current ? It could be the only place a local serviceman (stationed in Florida) could leave it while deployed.

The DoD hasn't issued those stickers since 2004, highly doubtful! Plus there's plenty of places to park long term on all Military installation's, even in his unit's own parking lot! He'd be a total dumbass to park it there long term!
 
Chinese Wuhan Flu & all :blah:

not surprised there's a lot more of that stuff of late
not as much priority for cars

or maybe they are just lazy :carrot:or don't care
 
Over the years we’ve all seen those. When I used to go asking the most common line was, “I’m going to do it some day”. This of course meant,” I’m going to let it rot right there”
 
I do realize the car is in wva. I did read the entire original post. Many people during my many years of service took their cars home instead of leaving them on-base during a deployment. Especially if it was a nice car.



P.S. the marines didn't discontinue their use of DoD stickers until 2017

You can store them at the autohobby shop on base. Also there is long term parking on bases for deployments.
