Route 66 Dust Bowl relics

On a vacation drive accross the U.S., I found lots of cool old cars sitting in fields. These I found abandoned off the old mother road, 66. Could they be old broken down, old dust bowl depression era cars? California or bust? that busted? Like the jalopy the Joed's drove in the movie "The Grapes of Rath"? Unbelieveable what is still out there... waiting to be found when you goof up and take a wrong turn off the beaten path in a small town along Route 66. I once got lost in Colorado and found a 57 Chevy convertible, and it was cheap so I bought it.

@cave0bear The man let me video this ONLY.... if I would not tell where it is. It is about 5 streets off route 66 in a small town. I made a wrong turn and came upon this, otherwise I wouldnt have found it. Funny thing about route 66, the street these cars are on, would be like an original, original route 66, as it is more like the main street in this old town, but the touristy part of 66 is about 5 streets off this old main street, thats why these old cars are in this field where they are.

@mikestheman3 If you went to a place like this and backed up a tow truck and took an old car wouldn't that be illegal?

[jeepers2655]

They used to make cars out of real hunks of metal. If you put a new car out there today, in time, it would be completely gone and these cars would still be standing there.

I don't know about you guys?

But me?

Im all about the TT Ford hard cabs.

I've always wanted to put one on a roadster pickup,

and havea hard cab with a Standard bed instead of

a Stake bed. Give it A Ra-Jo over head valve kit,

Buffalow wire spokes, rocky mountain brakes, and

A ruckstal 2 speed rear, and Drive it every day!

Since theres nothing ecept the cab that cant be bought

Brand spanking new to keep it on the road.
