1. Your car in front of abandoned hospitality- restaurant, hotel, etc.
The former location of the La Cascada Mexican Restaurant in Logan, Ohio. Before that, it was a Rax.


2. Your car at a scenic overlook.
No dice. Closest one was like 3 hours away.

3. Big brother - closest I could get to a new Legacy. And don't worry, it's a cell phone pic, one hand on the wheel.



4. Your car next to one that's a defunct brand in USA and Canada. Bonus points if you can get a shot with a Yugo!
I don't think they sell Renaults in Canada... I'm still not sure how this one ended up in ohio.


5. Trolling- Your trusty steed under a bridge.

Wait a second... I promised I'd be up today unless there's a hard set deadline I didn't see. :/

If its not too late I'll be about 2 hrs.

...Is an amusement park a "hospitality"?

Rats… looks like the 15th was actually the deadline :/

Can I at least post thumbnails as the looser that didn’t look at the calendar???

1. First one is Angela Park but wasn’t sure if an amusement park was generally defined as a hospitality. The second one was a wing shop… with lousy wings (was no wonder they closed).

2. Taken from inside the Jeep looking down over Mcconnellburg.

3. This was the Guinness book record breaking Jeep parade held this year in Butler PA. Somewhere in this parade was every generation and breed of Jeep, including the Bantam prototype.

4. My previous car was a SAAB, but they managed to survive. I couldn’t find any Hummers or Yugos.

5. This bridge is a section of the abandoned PA turnpike.

We'll leave it up to Bandi since this is his deal and all.

Sorry this took so long to pull together, but as the n00b, I wanted to make sure I was “doing it right” & it wasn’t lame (or at least not too lame)!

BTW, thanks to jeepdave for turning me on to this thread!

1.
Your car in a UE vacation! Half credit for your car by something of national importance.
[ first thumbnail – Outer Banks abandoned lifeguard station; second – Wrightsville PA bridge & Lime Kilns ]

2.
Your car on an abandoned stretch of road.
[ Rt. 61, Centralia, PA ]

3.
Let’s take the “not where’s it’s supposed to be” up a notch… your car with the Polizei - AND, a brief story of the last time you were pulled over (don’t get pulled over just for the shot – it’s not worth it ).
[ no examples with a police car, but the last time I was pulled over was for not having my doors on ]

4.
You car with wildlife - the wilder the better (girlfriends don't count)
[ OBX again, taken from the car – admittedly lame, but acceptable ]

5.
Your car in a “fashion” shoot.
[ Admittedly, a gimme... literally in my own back yard ]

6.
And for extra credit, your car in a family photo.
[ the offspring at the Guinness Book record Jeep Parade ]

Hope I didn’t break a good thread with a lame hunt?!

If it’s a matter of the busy season and the cold, how bout an open timeline?

If it’s an issue with the hunt, please feel free to replace it – I don’t wanna kill a great thread!

You had some fantastic ideas... i think the holiday season/etc just maimed the whole thing.

Ummm... my excuse is just a total lack of free time lately. But I think we should keep this thing rolling.

Lack of daylight in the evenings makes it difficult as well.
