Toyota Corona is a wonderfully retro looking classic, and with those wing mirrors ... nice
BMW E30 could make a cheap base for a full rebuild and restomod. In Thailand can be picked up for just a few thousand dollars in this state.
Ready to be given a lot of love
Big ol' Yank Tank ... Would you keep that original color?

Here's a clue to what the Americana is, let us know the answer in the comments ..
Very odd little side windows and the rear seats are probably vast, you could sink right in back there with only this little peep-hole to look out of.
A pickup truck would be our choice for a first classic project in Thailand!
In The Beginning ...
We've featured many a showcar in previous posts here on @NewtonClassics. Time for some less than show-worthy peices! Similarly located out of town and up a few miles from Pattaya, these cars were parked up behind some restaurants and not obviously on view until I happened to walk past them. I'd driven up and down this road many times, yet sometimes it needs good old fashion footwork to actually spot anything!
Project Cars
All these are for sale. They'll make good bases for restoration or completely modified cars at some point.
One of the highlights was the old school Toyota 'Corona' taxi in orange. Roof rack included, it looks the part, like some kind of pre-SUV era go anywhere car, able to handle loads of lugguge and family members - bench seats all the way.
The BMW is USA spec, but could be converted into something a lot more handsome. Who knows what engine it has though, possibly Toyota swapped like many of them. Then there's a great big hunk of Americana - A Lincoln or something. It's a coupe, and it's about the size of a 747. Check out the image comments for more.
Any of these rides would make nice projects. Especially that green pickup truck ... :)
