This seems to be some old Leyland truck. Location - Mulshi - near Walen dam. Sad to see it in this state, beyond repair now.

Got this via whatsapp. However, I am not able to identify the car, pic taken in Delhi. Looks similar to a Mitsubishi Colt Galant GTO.

Yep, thats what it looks like. I spotted a working one almost years ago on the DND.
Looks like someone has made some effort ages ago, the wheels look like a monstrosity even on a dilapidated car!

These cars are in the custody of the police. My guess is the pic was clicked outside the Jangpura police station which is where they've been for over a year now since they were seized from someone who had made fake papers for the cars.

here's the link to when I had first spotted this car in 2014. BTW there are more cars than just this one. Will probably head down that side tonight and see if I can get any pictures.

Today, saw this Fiat in local scrapyard. There were some original stuffs like Steering wheels, Wheel rims with wheel caps, Front and rear bumpers, Petrol tank external lid with cap, Dashboard meters, Bonnet mascot, Fiat emblem etc. I was in hurry so took a single snap from mobile.

Spotted this minor chop top in Chennai recently. It's been lying like this for a while now. "Just put in fuel and it will go till Delhi" was the claim. I'm sure he meant diesel for the Flatbed 😂

Spotted this W123 Mercedes lying around since the last couple of days. Not sure if they working on it or breaking it down. Condition seems to be deteriorating by the day.
