I’d say it was a sad car to see, but in wasn’t sitting on the ground anymore. Maybe it was going to be somebody’s dream car and start a new life.

Looks really good and the moss is matching!

If all of the parts are there and the car has not been 'touched' it is a good fine

The longs are gone. I would call it a zombie 914 but zombies are dead and move.

I was in the carpool lane passing this rig who was stuck in rush hour traffic. Julie was lucky to get an actual photo as we drove by.

What a shame, I hope there are parts that can be rescued. It is a great color.
I asked a friend in the navy up there what he did on his time off and he said
We sit on the back porch and watch the moss grow. I thought he was kidding… (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif)

A WA car that has lived outside…Given the moss build up, it’s been gathering it for years and years, I would imagine the rust is terminal cancer. Trunks, floors, you name the spot and look you’ll find it. I drug more than 1 home and stripped them all in my driveway. NEVER again.
