    An Belasco Unified School District bus that has been abandoned in Utah. It was a victim of the tornado outbreak of April 23rd, 2000. Although it dosent look to bad from the outside, parts of it inside got severely damaged by the tornado. The damages were so severe, It couldnt be in service. So it was stripped down and left in Utah to rest.

    A Gavril CB40 had been abandoned in the Utah desert for about 14 years. This bus has fallen victim to a very bad bridge collapse in Utah that had killed about 8 people in the bus and injured 21 others. The bus has been laid there to rest on the bottom of the mountain. The seats and the engine have been stolen and the windows got busted up even more than the accident photo. No person has been willing to restore the bus because the bus is still haunted with the people that got killed in the accident as one guy tried to restore it by taking it up the mountain but he died in a shooting about 8 1/2 days later. That statement shows to let sleeping dogs lie. There is also a pre-accident photo that shows the bus just 2 hours before the accident happened.

    1. I use the forums on mobile not PC
    2. Who the hell cares it’s a different vehicle and an entirely different story.

    This Civetta bolide imported from Italy got in a bad car wreck which resulted in a driver being paralyzed from the waist below is pictured here. This car was speeding and he lost control of the car and that is the result. It has been abandoned for about 8 years now and the driver died from complications from a bunch of surgeries to keep him alive. No attempts have been made to restore the car.

    This Cadillac Eldorado got into a terrible accident back in 1962 and the car has been sitting in a field beside the highway since. A burnside special was also involved in the wreck but got restored in the 1980’s car restorations project where the locals searched around for car parts to restore wrecked vehicles. There were parts for the special but not for the Eldorado. The Cadillac has been sitting for 62 years waiting for an eventual restoration. The burnside is now located at a farm house somewhere in firwood. The engine and fascia have been seized by vandals. IMG_0898.jpeg

    This team bus has been sitting because of the bus being way overdue for maintenance (about 3.5 years late) so they got rid of this thing near August 2013. This was used by a school in the area to take sports players to games. it is now no more as this bus was stripped of a lot of things. The wheels, doghouse, engine. windshield. and doors have been seized by vandals in the area. The rare thing about this is that it came with the classic wheel. Only 350 units were produced with this steering wheel, only about 125 were in service as of 2018, with the count had gone down as of recent data released from 2024, which said only approximately 57 units are still in service, with about 43 of them being spares. The home owner does not like the fact that the school bus is there and constantly tries to remove it, but he cannot do it. screenshot_2024-06-03_18-58-17.png screenshot_2024-06-03_18-58-28.png screenshot_2024-06-03_18-58-41.png

    This Wentward DT35L got into a accident while on tour that injured a few passengers. It couldn't be in service because it was totaled so it was laid to rest near where the accident happened. It was on a tour for the local Zebra tours service in the area when the accident happened. . screenshot_2024-06-05_19-47-08.png . . screenshot_2024-06-05_19-46-52.png

    This tuned Grand Marshal had been involved in an imported drug smuggling operation to get from one side of Italy to the other to deliver the drugs to the most notorious mafia on the island which has an unknown name., which resulted in many wrecks and even injuries to 2 people. the carabinieri were eventually able to catch the guy after he lost control of the grand marshal and slammed into a tree which rendered the car undrivable because of radiator damage. It now sits in the Italian countryside, waiting for its eventual restoration back to service in its tuned form. screenshot_2024-06-11_17-50-20.png screenshot_2024-06-11_17-50-12.png screenshot_2024-06-11_17-50-02.png

    This Gunner patriot was used by the American military for a navy seal training course. In the middle of one mission the patriot went a little too far and therefore the engine hydrolocked. the car is in perfect condition except a broken windshield, some broken glass in the back and a slightly dented roof. screenshot_2024-06-14_20-20-37.png screenshot_2024-06-14_20-20-24.png screenshot_2024-06-14_20-20-19.png
