Ford Prefect.
More information on this Ford:
One of a number of pics on this site showing Nuttalls scrapyard in Yorkshire. The sad remains here are/were a Ford Prefect (E93A or E493A) although it was in the last throes of falling apart completely. The yard was being cleared when we visited in 1994 so this Ford is probably long gone.
This section of oldclassiccar is full of photographs showing a mix of unrestored, derelict, abandoned, and scrapped old cars. Some cars are with enthusiasts awaiting restoration, others are dumped or seen in breakers yards. I don't have any more information on the classic Ford above, so all news regarding what happened to it, or the rescue of this particular Prefect would be much appreciated.
All the photos, including this picture of an old Ford Prefect, are shown as a reminder of how old cars go to look once past their first flush of youth. Some of the scrapyards in this archive no longer exist, others perhaps survive but don't allow you to walk around them. And those that you can still get in probably don't have many classics in them any more. For more photos like this one of the Prefect, and similar old Fords, please visit the main scrapyard & scrap cars image page.
