    LOL. He needs to get that thing running before the moss dries out, and drive it to a car show or cruise night like that.

    That's great! Poor car...abandoned for 27 years only to end up getting smashed to pieces in a demo derby. Oh well.

    doh!

    that was NOT patina, as it has been explained to me. that was more like sinking a ship and having become part of a coral reef. too bad it being a derby car. when are these guys going to learn that Camrys, Maximas and anything from MBZ are going to make much better derby cars?(y)

    Drive it as-is. The tree-huggers in Ory-gone would probably appreciate it.

    Yup, that's Oregon for 'ya....... Should be fairly near me. I'll have to look for it.
    On second thought, I'm not going to bother. Says he's going to derby it.

    Window boxes on a wagon might =:1st: a trophy at a car show.
    I could use old valve covers filled with sphagnum moss to grow some greenery.
    Maybe the almostabuick would look good with some ferns.
    I wonder if I could grow some here in hot, humid Florida.....

    Here, even my late model truck turns yellow/green in a few weeks. That's under a car shelter. Just water it and create our own mossmobile.
    What am I thinking. Nature waters it too. :rofl2:
    Remember way back when all those moss covered Oregon junkyard cars were the talk of the internet? Krash's wagon is gonna look like that soon.
