An Ignominious End

A reader forwarded these photos taken in northern Canada. Rather than recycled or otherwise utilized, the parts and vehicles were bulldozed over the edge of a hill. As you can see, amongst the debris are some jeeps.

    What a heart break… especially that passenger seat I need! We had a similar tragedy in Phoenix when a 4WD shop was “turned in” for alleged EPA violations (leaking fluids and such). To clean up the area behind their shop, they hauled off 2 or 3 40yd dumpsters of vintage flat fender parts including engines, transmissions, axles and such… all just months before I took up this hobby/addiction.

    It is sad,a lot of parts in that pile that my Gpw has had missing since I got it come 34 years ago that I am now trying to locate.It is probably so far north that it would cost a lot to have saved these vehicles for parts.But we all know that we all will go to extremes at times to obtain jeep parts!!
    Still very sad indeed!

    Talk about a crime scene.
    Reminds me of the pic, Dave posted awhile back, of all the Jeeps on the bottom of the ocean.
    Sad.
