just passing time on the curbside in Argentina and Uruguay, from aptly named Fossils Mechanical, by Gabriel and his friends

Notice this cab is chained to the tree

and this is cabled to something out of the shot

the above and the below pair are Mercedes

Above 1938 Ford

The above 2cv Citreon has a unique story, there is a special compartment under the seat where it's owners ashes were put, as his dying wish was to be a part of the car, and the city, until it may be towed away. (Doesn't look like towing is a big priority)

1934 Ford

Above, 1960 panhard that was pulled out of storage

The bullet bus (aka: while taking on the improbable, meeting people and finding out that fellow VW fans donate parts)

This 21 Window Deluxe was abandoned and partially stripped in the Nevada desert and then promptly used as target practice for passersbys. After being rescued from the desert, a massive donation project started as bus owners from across the country donated parts and services to get this bus driving again. (that is so awesome! I believe the praise must go to the Samba.com, great VW website)
