Found on the Internet: Derelict European Classics


Two early 1950s-vintage Lagondas, a convertible and a sedan, reposing quietly somewhere in Europe.



Unrestored 1920s Alfa Romeo 6C1500 with Zagato roadster coachwork. In restored form, these and their closely related, better-known 6C1750 brethren are some of the most beautiful cars ever made in my opinion.

1920s-vintage Hotchkiss limousine, located somewhere in Europe. This would be a daunting project at best, but it would be beautiful if restored nicely. 


1950s Mercedes-Benz 300SL Gullwing coupe. You're looking at a million dollars rotting away here, possibly more if it has the belly pan covering the underside of the car. The Rudge aluminum wheels alone on this are worth at least $500 each as they sit. 
Extremely rare Iso Grifo Spider, sharing garage space with a highly desirable Mercedes-Benz 300SL "Gullwing" coupe.
