Landman Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 One day last winter, a friend emailed me these three pictures of an old car peeking through the snow along a snowmobile trail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Landman Posted October 23, 2011 Author Share Posted October 23, 2011 The windshield opening looked suspiciously familiar. One must always go check these things out . Nothing like a late winter day to go for a snowshoe walk. Sure enough, it is a 1934 Chevrolet Master. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Landman Posted October 23, 2011 Author Share Posted October 23, 2011 Went back in May to see what's there. It is badly mangled complete with the requisite bullrt holes and shotgun blast. Amazingly enough there is some salveageable stuff there. Driver's side doors are good among other things. Fender wells, sidemount hardware, regulators, one inner fender. Warrants further investigation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Landman Posted October 23, 2011 Author Share Posted October 23, 2011 Went back yesterday with my son-in-law and granddaughter. Picked up a few parts. Raised it off the ground. Frame looks OK. I think I'll drag it home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shop Rat Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 How wonderful of your granddaughter to go and help. Now you need to get that Chevy ready in time to take her and her date to her Senior Prom in it. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luv2Wrench Posted October 23, 2011 Share Posted October 23, 2011 You just know that the '34 Master saw you checking him out and was just hoping, hoping, hoping you would come back and pull him out of there. Awesome, truly awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Landman Posted October 24, 2011 Author Share Posted October 24, 2011 I wonder who the owner is?That's what I started out to find last winter when the owner of the lands on either side of the "road" where the car is said that it had been there as long as he remembers. It is sitting on public lands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is sitting on public lands.Just saying there might be an owner somewhere, but it doesn't sound like they are interested in her at all, if they are still kickin'.I've seen people get their butts kicked because they were taking parts off of "abandoned cars. But then again, I've had people say, "help yourself". You just have to be mindful of what you do.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
