isthistaken, only some panels and glass, rest has been there so long the floor is actually gone.

When I start my volksrod build I will be collecting a ton of parts from this place, the cars date back to the late 30s early 40s and none were in accidents. Its crazy

So, I grew up in the suburbs of Chicago. I go back for visits regularly. 2 years ago, on one of my visits, I passed by a row of 3 abandoned car dealerships near where I went to High School. Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed there was a car parked in one of the showrooms, of these otherwise abandoned dealerships. Interesting, but ultimately no big deal.

FFWD to last week. I'm back in town for another visit, and I pass by said car dealerships again, which are still abandoned, and this car is STILL in the showroom just sitting there. I decide to investigate further. This is what I found:

This appears to be a mid-80's Chrysler LeBaron (K-car), in MINT condition (minus the flat tires). No idea why it's been sitting in that dealership's showroom like this. In the past, this was a Chrysler/Jeep dealer, and I have heard that the owner of this dealer liked to keep classic cars in his showroom(s), so I guess this one just got left behind. Pretty neat!

About 10 years ago in a small city I came across a closed down, former BMW motorcycle dealership. Nothing in the showroom, but about a 30 year old BMW 750 boxer twin and a '60's BMW R60 flat twin motorcycle. Both appeared to be in not bad shape.

I went by the next year, the bikes were gone and there was a new business (non motorcycle dealer) there. I've wondered where those old bikes went.

Here are a few of mine.

Must send a link to "American Pickers".

As an old car junkie, I would sure like to see this in the original - un-pp form in color....

Great pic - I really love it.

Thanks for all the compliments!!!

This is part of a "truck graveyard" not too far from my home. The owner let's folks come and take photos a couple times a year. It's about 20 acres worth of trucks

Here is the color version:
