There are far too many cool, abandoned vehicles out there. Some not so far gone that they couldn’t be restored. I wish there was a hookup database for people to input their finds and restorers to rescue. I’d give anything to have the Fargo in the last picture. I seem to be a little partial to trucks. 🙂 I’ll definitely have to do another vehicles series – I didn’t have time to include all that I wanted. You’re welcome to post links in the comments to any cool specimens you may have or stumble upon. I love them all!
May 18, 1980, Mount St. Helens erupted with the force of 27,000 nuclear bombs. It destroyed 234 square miles of forest and this car, thrown a great distance by the blast, is all that remains of a team of miners who ignored all warnings to leave.
The Distillery District is a historic and entertainment precinct located east of Downtown Toronto, Ontario, Canada. It contains numerous cafés, restaurants, and shops housed within heritage buildings of the former Gooderham and Worts Distillery. The 13-acre (52,000 sq. m) district comprises more than 40 heritage buildings and 10 streets, and is the largest collection of Victorian-era industrial architecture in North America.
The district was designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 1988.
