Ok , some one posted this link somewhere. http://www.oldride.com/community/galleries/391833729.html
I found a LOT of inspiration for the junkyard there--among other things a lot of "run out" cars just left to rust -- many almost completely covered in it with only splotches of paint left.
Here are some efforts to duplicate this effect--these cars are only partially done -- as I said this is experiemental.
PS--I had intended to make a partially built hot rod out of this duece roadster-- built in the WORST example of a hot rod ever made -- botched up frame , a completely UNSPRUNG front axle, probably a flathead straight eight motor , really a POS deathtrap, that somebody gave up on halfway done & probably that saved their life . I can't do that because the Hot Wheels duece is WAY smaller than 1/64th & just won't look right in the yard. It is just a bit bigger than HO to tell the truth!! RATS!!!!
