Found these poor things left to rot at the site I was working at today. Property is being used as a scrap yard and the owner has no interest in selling anything. Also, I live in Canada, so seeing not 1 but 2 Stagea's left to rot, and 1 of them being R34 swapped just hurts.
Make them an offer then, say you'll arrange collection. Coward.
I got about 1grand to my name. Even if me and my sister split it my coworker already talked to the property owner about buying a vehicle off him and he wasnt interested
Offer anyway, coward
Feel free to donate to the save the Stagea cause
Time to make a gofundme page
Offer $50 and a six pack of cheap American lager. See what they say.
"i wiLl fIx tH3m OnE dAy" ah owner. I look with cursed eye at these kind of people.
Nine times out of ten at lots like those they're willing to take an offer on the cars.
Because nine times out of ten there's more work needed on the car than it's worth.
No we Canadians hoard shit like crazy. I work ESA and have seen cars parked for years but the owner just refused to sell. Mental
Kinda pisses me off. Me and my sister are ready to split this car and work on getting it running, but of course, Canadians have to be stubborn and horde things for no reason
I know of a 60 series Land Cruiser that's been standing in the same place for I'm guessing 4 years now. I asked about it, got told that it was their son's, and he didn't want to sell - yet. A shame, because, going by the little I could see of the frame, in 2 years time there won't be anything left to sell.
I mean, it’s a Land Cruiser. It’ll probably function with no frame somehow.
I know it's a joke, but never, ever underestimate rust. Here's a ~2012 pickup with... some rust damage to the frame:

It’s his car he can do what he wants with it lmao, if you want one then import one yourself. Not like Stageas are particularly rare or low production in the markets they were sold in
Neil Young's car collection clip looks like a scene from trailer park boys but it's real

And unfortunately I'm broke, so I don't have enough money to throw at something like this
I'm BC in the interior.
A guy had a 80s Porsche 928... Just sitting in the woods ... Refused to sell to me...
I'm just waiting for his obituary 😅
Honestly that Stagea if repaired would probably sell for a big profit if you had to borrow a reasonable amount of money. Jaydeem but also very practical and getting relatively rare now
/uj the r34 front end swapped is a legit 260rs. Do you have contact info?
My supervisor has the owners number for letting them know when we are on site working. I do not have it though
all good, I'm going to post this to the 260rs facebook group they may have some details.
The VIN tag says RB25DE. How’s that legit?
So all 260rs came off the line at Nissan as standard stageas, then we're modified by autech with the rb26, r33 drivetrain, and chassis bracing. So a real 260rs should have rb25 on the blue engine plate.
Oh, today I learned.
at minimum the black one does look like it has an RB26 in it
Typical regard ass hoarder. He will keep sitting on those cars and tell everybody its his "next project" once he has time. These cars will never be touched again. Its some type of mental illness that these people see others put some value in those things, thus they never let them go. Gets worse with age.
Poor JDM Wagons nooooooooooooooooooooooo 😢
Man you could easily come by with a tow truck when they’re not looking, wait what?
Theres cameras on the driveway leading to the property
owner has no interest in selling ? Man thats crazy. I'm in Canada too, where is this? Toronto?
In the Rouge, not far from the Zoo
red one looks pretty clean, maybe they are not part of the scrap? Like its the owners 15th car or something. I work ESA and see random cars on random lots too. Sad
Hes got LOTS of vehicles here. Theres a riced out civic, tons of pickups, SUVs, transport trucks, and tons of random parts like seats, engines, tires, and even an infant car seat just sitting out in the element
Where in Canada is this?
Rouge National Park, just outside Toronto
Hmmm I live just over an hour away from there…
same bro we should get a tow truck and hook that shit (not legal advice) (Not finical advice) (Gone wrong) (Gone sexual) (Exposed)
So do I. When we meeting
I fucking hate hoarders
Awwwwww no.... That does fucken hurt to see... That snow would be rotting it to a corpse from the inside out too... Damn man that's such a shame for it to go out like that...
Do the right thing man...
Adopt it and give it a good home... Rescue cars make for the best projects haha
r/lostredditors
You should do an auction or import them
so are you just not gonna do something? maybe you might know some people who has enough bands and enough flirting skills to get him to cough one up
Ask him if you can drag them away. You pay for getting them out and maybe a bit on top for him, and I think there's probably a chance you can have at least one of them.
I mean honestly? These are almost certainly saveable.
Ooof where is this? That red one is HOT.
Not far from the Toronto Zoo in Rouge National Park
Cars are awfully clean to be left to “rot”. For the red one to be so dirt free it can’t have been parked there long or someone is washing it. Don’t always assume because something is parked and not registered that it’s being left to rot. Very cool rides.
It's in a scrap yard blocked in by other cars that are wrecked. I'd say its safe bet that its being left to rot
Not browne though!?
Just steal them lmao
Wrong sub
This is where these cars belong. Kei trucks will inherit Toronto!
Oh nooo a car they made thousands of and is litterally worthless in its home market is out in the cold boohoo
are those GTRs?
The black 1 is R34 GTR swapped. I has the front end and engine of a R34 GTR
Bruh?!
what!? ,:( you have to admit those do look like GTRs
They're not even close, lol. What GTRs have you been seeing?
the 90s ones (the front)
Stagea. Wagon built on skyline chassis
Took me too long to notice this was r/carscirclejerk hahaha well played OP
I don’t think this was intended as a shitpost
