Went out to the coast this weekend for our youngest granddaughter's 5th bday.
Went through Keremeos BC and anyone who has been through there will tell you that town's fruit and vegetable stands have taken yard art to the next level! All manner a tractors and what not all over the yard. Anyway we stopped at one for apples so I picked the one with my fav of the lot.
I asked the sales guy, he said it runs owner starts it up a bit but never drives it. I looked it over and looks like a driver complete ready to go. My fav body style and a Merc to boot!

Lol, Fred I started a thread like this last year sometime, it's in here somewhere.
James, friend of mine found a 1945 Austin Tilly over a bank out here last year, still out there.Fred: You haven't been around here that long, so you may not be aware that I have a thing for small British stuff
It started when I was still in my teens, and the affliction hasn't gone away......and I never once went looking for a cure ! lol
Other that it appears to be missing most of the glass (and the box??), it looks ok from here, how was it up close & personal?

Taggart29: Well, I'm a bit surprised, but that is one I'd not heard of
So, I quickly conferred with Mr. Google, here's what I found......

The hardtop ones I don't hate, not much of a fan of the softtop version.......

I offered to buy this original RHD 46 Olds as yard art the other year however the seller was under the misapprehension that it was a lot valuable than the asking price he was seeking. WAY TOO FAR GONE and not much left that wasn't rusty or salvageable.
Then again a friend has this project languishing, an original all steel GMH 35 Chevy Master phaeton.
