I know these are not gm product, but thought you guys might find them interesting. Saw them while traveling in the Florida panhandle, near Wakulla Springs. All from the same family farm, placed in chronological order. With them a hand painted sign on an old pallet, "may they rust in peace"

Looks like someone's idea of field art.

Re: Found on the road..

Some look like they may have usable parts, but if it is their decision to just let them rust away then cannot argue with that. In a way it is a testimony to how well they were built that they have lasted this long!
