Headless zombies with bomb-hands FTW!

Love the "Serious Sam" logo on the RX-7. What a fun game to cheat at.

Am i the only one to see super SERIOUS Lemons potential???

I love that RX-7. Serious Sam and the PIPBody from Fallout on the hood? Lots of nerd cred there.

What could have caused that cars' creation?

@mackenzie: PIPBoy. Seriously. Wheres that edit button?

Two 928s, a pre-painted LeMons entry, and a pro-stock hearse and I'm excited to see a Monza. Even I doubt my sanity every once in a while.

I always get an all-too-familiar laugh when I see posts like this. Murilee, you've always struck me as the kind of person who I'd see rummaging thru boxes of stuff at the Long Beach Veterans Stadium swap meet or the Beach Blvd Pick A Part. I wouldn't be surprised to discover we've covered some of the same ground at the same time. And I'm prolly not the only person here who feels that way. Just thought I'd share that thought.

I can't look at the older cars in this Long Beach junkyard without wondering if any of them had some screen time as an "extra" in Gone in 60 Seconds.

Hey, its Sweet Tooth's Ice Cream truck.
I'll take the Dodge van and the 240SX plz.

Hey Murilee- if you're interested, I've got quite a few junkyard pics I could send along..

DOTS are kind of hard to come by in rural Maine, but "permanently parked"- that I can do.

Here's one from my last junkyard trip, just for a taste-

@slantsick: I like the 64 Imperial. Was it a 2 door or 4 door?

So how good (or bad) is the BMW?

You guys have interesting junkyard cars. Around here we just seem to have the past ten years of domestic crap.

@P161911: It's a Crown Coupe, production something like 5,233- way too nice to languish in a junkyard, I think..

Hmm- I don't know why I can't get the pic link to work right now, but anyway, it's a sweet Imp.

@selfhatingotaku: dammit. i thought i was gonna get to make a sweet tooth joke. i don't know any good hearse jokes

Dibs on the S14.

@slantsick: That is sick. It's holding up pretty well, I had an 88 escort up north that almost turned into a pile of rust-dust within a year of being permanently parked.

@slantsick: I sold my basket case 67 Imp convertible (only ~500 made) last year. It drove on the trailer after sitting for about 5 years. It might have broke in two before it made the trip from Georgia to Ohio though. If the 64 isn't too rusty it could be saved or qualify for PCH at least.

My heart belongs to that Cutlass Cruiser. It's probably a cube on a boat to China by now, though.
*bursts into tears*

That '73 hearse is the cat's freakin' meow.

Gawd, I love the concept of a blown 472. I'd need my own oil well and refinery, however.

Somebody needs to roll up a couple of portable parking lots and save these babies. The wagon, the Corvairs, the hearse--each and every one a PCH or LeMons contender, folks! And what's with that Warthog red porshce(?) with the busted orthodontia?

@P161911: Well, I didn't examine it that closely, but I didn't see any obvious rust other than the patch on the hood.

And top price for "junk" cars is about $400 here now.

This '66 Belvy seemed pretty solid too, if a little wrinkled here and there...

Anyone else see the Porsche and wonder if someone put a turbine in it?

@slantsick: I'm surprised that the Imp hasn't been assigned to demo derby duty, unless the junkyard owners are holding it to sell as a resto candidate.

Silvia-engined B210 Datsun, for me. Please!

@thatguy01: Well, the junkyard does have a "saved" section.. Hopefully, they'll move it up there, and not with the fork-loader, either.

I don't think that demo derbys are as popular up here as in some other locales.. and that would be a crime, in any case- it's a '64 Imperial for heaven's sake.

This would be my choice for derby action:

Holy crap! A Dart Sport

@fodder650: Yes! first thing I did was look for a big hole in the hood!

@MOPAR-MAN:
Actually, both of them are Dodge Demons, one '71 and one '72.
They gave up quite a few parts for my Duster turned Demon clone.

@fodder650: NO HOLE IN THE HOOD! YDMF!
