Junk Yard Jewels

I came across this site junkyardjewels.com while searching for some Hot Wheels cars.

At the site you can purchase one of a kind 1/18 scale die cast models that have been made to look like old cars from junkyards or salvage yards.The detail on these cars is amazing.

Here is a description from the site:

Surface rust, rust holes, rusty bumpers, filthy interiors full of junk parts, primer & rusty body panels galore, these once proud classics are in sad shape indeed. I like to describe classic cars & trucks like these as "beat but complete" and these replicas definitely need it all. In all honesty, most wouldn't even be a decent parts car. Most wouldn't even attempt to restore rust buckets like these, but you'll be proud to make a custom Junkyard Jewel the centerpiece of your die-cast collection.

After visiting this site, I wanted to try to do this myself.I have done a few junkyard scenes with 1/64th scale cars. They are no where near the detail of what you find at http://junkyardjewels.com/.

Cars found in barns,yards and in the woods

I have always had a love for old cars.Ever since I was a kid,whenever I spotted an old car I would try to imagine what it had been through and who had driven it and road in it.Junked and rusted cars were my favorite and still are today.

I remember exploring the woods close to my home with friends and we would sometimes come across abandoned cars in the middle of the woods. It seems we had discovered a popular place to dump junked cars.My friends and I would play on an around these cars for hours.I even had a collection of hub caps covering one wall in my bedroom.I wish I had kept them.

Here are a few pictures of cars that I found at various web sites, including a link to one of my favorite web sites on the subject.

I even made a scale model of a group of rusted out junks using some Hot Wheels cars. I am a collector of Hot Wheels.That will be a future post.
