Theme Day: Rust & Ruin
Sitting in the parking lot of a restaurant in north Phoenix is this old Austin slowly disintegrating. It's been sitting in that same parking slot for as long as I can remember.
It makes me wonder if the restaurant owner bought this car with the intention of restoring it or possibly using it as a display for the restaurant but, never got around to getting the job done.
Instead, the elements have taken their toll.

That's a shame, looks like it was once a grand looking car.
I hope I never end up rusting and forgotten.
This was definitely left behind. Rust never sleeps.
btw nice theme choice for us Sharon.
Too bad. I'm sure it would be worth something if restored.
I'm seeing a lot of rusty cars today... :)
Perfect entry on the theme. Love it!
Poor old Austen :) but fantastic find for the theme Sharon!
Seems a shame to let the car rust away.
It wont rust away as fast in Phoenix as it would on the coast. Maybe the owner parked it there years ago and is still inside eating.
Beautifully captured a great image for the day. I totally forgot theme day. Again!

Beautiful detail, perfect for this theme!
Sad to see. Maybe something good will happen to it yet, Sharon!
The first photo is perfect for this meme!
Ouch. The flat tyre is so sad! I wouldn't mind restoring it!
It looks a little sad, poor thing. Maybe someone will take pity on it and restore it!
This car became a logo for this restaurant over time. The detail is very well chosen.
Me again....thanks for your comment on my blog. Sorry to hear about your falls in London, but it is comforting to know I'm not the only one who has these mishaps!
How sad.
Boy, that thing has long passed its better days.
What a mess!
Your theme is getting a lot of interest and many fine contributions. Thanks!!!
Nice find Sharon.
You seem to be a super sleuth for old, rusting vehicles!
