I think this is the same car at Millstone....located below the grout pile with the windmill on top? This one has been a pee spot for us too!

I hadn't gone with any intention of getting any pix, so I'm holding my phone as still as I can. This wreck is probably from the '30's(?) and is probably familiar to those who frequently hike the Buckeye Trail in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park between Brecksville and Snowville Rd. To say it's been there awhile is an understatement.
No bikes allowed. (yet)

Yeah you could abandon that vehicle in my driveway anytime. Just leave the title on the seat and the keys in the switch in case I have to move it.

[jaxes88]

huffster that thing is beautiful, is it yours?

[huffster]

In my dreams. Sometimes I like to play the identification game when I see these old vehicles. So, I got it as a Wagoneer, but I'm guessing a little bit at the year. The sweet restored one is a google pic of a '70.

This is seriously one of the coolest threads ever on MTBR, love it!! I have never come across an abandoned car, but I have seen on old washing machine in the woods. Not sure why someone would go through the effort of dragging something like that into the middle of nowhere.

Are you the McKusker. I saw these on POTN last night. They are great shots.

[chunky1x]

I could those things for scrap or parts a have more money to buy a good 29er with more to spare for savings.

I guess boats can be vehicles to- here's some boats that have been scattered by "sandy' at the shore-this is just a small sample

Pity! I guess some people can afford to throw them away! Some look as if the storage plastic is still on them?

Salvaging boats off the beach like that is expensive. They are probably waiting on their insurance companies to step up. They may also not be seaworthy after being beaten up and running aground during the storm. Being here in Florida for some bad storms, I've seen enough of this. Sometimes its a daunting task just to locate the owner, or for the owner to locate his boat.

So does that become "Finders keepers"?

I'm not familiar with all the maritime salvage laws, but in some instances, it most certainty does.
