Not sure what year or make of truck this is but I found it in Alaska. It has wooden spokes for rims.

One of my uncles has atleast a dozen trucks from the 20's to 40's in his back pasture. He says he's going to get working on them when he retires.
We had one in the woods behind our house when I was a kid that had a couple of trees growing right up through the long gone floor and roof of the car.

I found another one that was "Left for dead."

Pretty sure I have run into that yellow rig out by Cavanaugh before....I will have to take some pics myself and post...I know of a few.

These are from the same place near Cavanaugh. I grew up in this area. We call it the bone yard.

Problem is with the new gate it is a little bit further of a trek to Lake Cavanaugh.
It sure was quite a trek. I walked from the gate. It was approx. eleven miles round trip. I hiked about thirteen miles that day with a couple of side trips into some places my granddad had told me about.
I found the frame of an old steam donkey.

hey I'll give you a thousand bucks for that beat up '56 Chevrolet....it's just taking up garage space...might as well sell it to me ;)
Sorry TEX not mine to sell. Maybe you should hit up silverslayer for that cool ford with some minor body damage. The rear bumber looks to be in excellent condition.
Post by: TEX-X on October 20, 2009, 06:57:42 AM
55, 56, and 57 chevrolets are very very very hard to come by nowadays...well you can find them but the restored ones are going for a 30,000 to 50,000 bucks.... and you can find ones that are sitting in a pasture rusted out with a tree groing through the middle for 10 or 15000....if you look at the NADA blue book the price will actually go up depending on what type of tree is growing out of the middle :rolleyes: :chuckle:

My dad has a running/driving '56 four door for sale right now. He's asking $7800 for it. It's probably a 15 year old restoration. Definitely not pristine, but it has potential. I wish he'd just restore it and drive it but he's laid off so it needs to go.

Ya all don't have a chance keeping up with burrhead. He lives in Skagit county, I about crapped myself when I moved over here from eastern WA. Never seen so many dumped in the woods rigs in my life! Old and new, you would almost think that there were no recking yards in Skagit County with the number of rigs that get dumped every year out here.

Yeah its a pretty sad thing to see all of the crap that's dumped around the woods here. I've lived here for 39 years and it just seems to get worse, even with all the gate closers.

If you go up into Sierra Pacific land, where the 200 intersects with the 220 there's a 40's Chev down in the bottom of that ravine. If you hike out the trail/railroad grade to Bear Lake and Three Lakes, there's a bunch of steam machinery over the edge there.
The area behind the horse camp below Josephine was a dumping ground for stolen cars for a long time. Jackman creek road too. Here in Whatcom county I'd say that Northfork road gets the most cars dumped on the DNR land there. There's a little S-10 on Highway 9 between VanZant and Acme that showed up a few weeks ago.
Who the hell would steel an S-10? :bash:

i'm pretty sure that's a 1971 GTO and you could find a numbers matching fully restored one for under $25,000. maybe more if it is a judge. :dunno:
now if i could just sh*t $25,000. :chuckle:
1969 Ram Air IV convertible is the ultimate GTO for collectors ~ $750,000

Imagine this! Way back some time after the 1948 flood the powers to be decided to use the old junk cars for rip rap in the river to keep it from washing away more land. The benefits were, got rid of the junkers, place for the fish to live, helped stop washing. Then at a later date when the river was well littered and lots of gear grease to leak for years to come the next power to be decided to make the Methow a scenic river and they pulled a good share of the ones out that hadn't been ground up in hi waters. That is why there is so much scrap pieces of metal in and along the river.

Idahobooner - I was thinking the same thing. I have seen junkers used for shoring up the river banks along the Newaukum, Chehalis, Willapa, and a handful of other rivers that escape me at the moment. Usually when salmon or steelhead fishing. I used to think it was funny (in an odd sort of way), when we were in high school and jumping off of bridges and train trestles that one particular spot I ventured, but never jumped off the trestle, one of my friends said if you jump off the trestle stay to the left or right. I don't remember which side, but his sound reasoning was that there were some car bodies under the water on the left or right and he said you don't want a car hood up the rectum.
I don't ever remember anyone ever getting hurt, but still thinkg it was kind of odd that people still jumped into the river on a regular basis from 30 - 60 feet up.

Beautiful, in a weird way, to watch the earth take something back.
Makes you wonder. If every last human died tomorrow. How long would it take before you would never know that a human had been to New York City?
History channel did an awesome show on just that idea ;)

(I'm wanting to see some photo's of pre-1970's vehicles. Truck's, car's, Tractor's' Equipment, ... Ones that you have found while hiking or just driving in the rig. Ones that have been left for dead.)
Sorry just bumping this to the top again. :hello:

Cool: I hoped this would still be going. I have got a few new ones to share. I hunt an area that has alot of old Sh#t laying around it.
I shot my first deer about 1991 about 25 feet behind that combine, then shot my first cougar a year later laying under those tree's in the upper left pic. Boy it was great going up in that valley!!!!!

And another. I have an old 40's bus, and an old plymoth fury abandoned on my property up in Darrington. They have been there for 30+ years. You can barely find them. I will see if I have a pic.Obs.... road, about 500 yards up from the corral, shot a yote there once.
