Looks like a decommissioned Army one. Maybe just bought at an Army disposal auction.

BTW, here's a Standard Gazel in Thrissur, Kerala- seems to be some kind of scrapyard. No other details known.

Re: Rust In Pieces... Pics of Disintegrating Classic & Vintage Cars

Aha perfect place to share the images. I am not sure if this has been uploaded in the past but I have seen this masterpiece standing tall for at least the last 8-10 years.

I do not know the name or the model. But every day at the time of the morning walk I make sure to pat him on his superb tyre arch. The curves are so daunting and so commanding, that itself beckons a second look, every time I pass him.

Please can someone tell me the vehicle details of this model.

Location :- From Nasik Fata (PCMC, Pune) go towards the Pimpri and it will come on your left hand side, just before the "Wade Wale Joshi." Just two minutes walking distance.

Its probably not a Tata as the logo suggests. If someone asks for fresh detailed image, please let me know what to look for so that I can capture the same.

Vehicles of the yesteryear commands so much respect...

They're not Tatas. They're Nissans

The tow-truck in Pune seems to be in great shape, given the the time period for which it has been standing there. Will definitely be a good project for them special-machine enthusiasts

So they are Nissans. Wow. Any idea of the particular model so that I can search the Google and try to find out how they looked in their glory days.

I sincerely wish someone interested and looking for a vintage truck, gets to see him and takes away for proper restoration.

Interesting to note that this truck has a transfer case on each axle, meaning its a 4X4

A rotting Ambassador (late 1960's as it is WBG) and a Morris Minor, both in Kolkata.

All of these cars are rotting away at a disputed property in Gurgaon. I don't have more details, will get them soon. Some of them seem to be slightly modern cars. Members, please help in identifying the models.

Some nice cars there, can spot a Ponton Mercedes, Karmamm Ghia, Porsche 944, Dodge, Honda BMW and a few more.

Wonder what the dispute is and how so many nice cars ended up like this.
