Vauxhall Victor F Type.
More information on this Vauxhall:
Deep in darkest Wales on a holiday in 2000 we found this cache of classic cars laying in some woodland behind tall gates. The main vehicle in this photograph is a Victor F-Type from the 1950s. Alongside is an Austin A40 along with several unidentified cars. I doubt any of these will see the road again.
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 Vauxhall above, so all news regarding what happened to it, or the rescue of this particular Victor F Type would be much appreciated.
All the photos, including this picture of an old Vauxhall Victor F Type, 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 Victor F Type, and similar old Vauxhalls, please visit the main scrapyard & scrap cars image page.
