Lets See Your Abandoned and Forgotten Vehicles

This is pretty pathetic. So sad to see.
Not your photography., that's very good.

Just checked out your Flickr.
That gorgeous blue Studebaker is just that.
Magnificent

A lot of burned out autos in various spots ... stolen vehicles, then the aftermath of a joyride?

That's unfortunately par for the course here.
We got a grant to cleanup some of the burnt out wrecks in the forests here.
I can't answer for these but expect same

Unfortunately yes. There’s no real consequences to deter the no hopers from doing it. A slap on the wrist, you’re a naughty boy, & off they go again. We lost 2 cars in the same night a few years back, the cops are tearing their hair out, as the offenders were on their 11’th or 12’th offence. What does that tell you?

Well, down here in Texas, we used to hang horse thieves! But ... that might be a bit extreme for auto theft these days.

There are a lot of cars stolen here, also. But they usually end up used for other crime or get chopped for parts. Some end up going into Mexico, never to be seen again. Auto theft can be risky in Texas, as we still own firearms and state law does allow you to protect your property with force. But even that doesn't deter the 'lil bastards!

Here are a couple more. Most of my favorite ones are too large, so I will have to download a smaller file size.
