This may be too nice to be called a derelict.

PabloS' colorful derelict reminded me of something, so I looked back in my files to a group of vintage photos circa 1950, taken in Estero Beach.
Here are the derelict cars that weren't that old at the time these photos were taken.
From the other side:

A second pass...
Opposite side had no door, partiers hanging out every opening and was bottoming every whoop. Onlookers were making book on who would fly off first.

In the early 70's, when the road to El Faro was still dirt, there was a derelict Model T Pickup that we used to drive by all the time.

Found this old beauty at a deserted Rancho in the shadow of Picacho del Diablo.
Late 40's early 50's Dodge Power Wagon?
Haven't had a bad trip yet....

Here is part of an old jeep that was used by Heraclio Espinoza to get back and forth to Rancho El Metate from El Rosario. Notice Heraclio Espinoza's
brand the "H" with half moon underneath. The jeep is now located at the entrance to Rancho Cerro Prieto.
This car is just west of the old mission ruins at Rancho Las Palmas. It belonged to a man who was on his way back to Rancho El Metate from El Rosario
many, many years ago. He and his passenger were driving late at night when they developed car trouble. They got out and made a torch to look under the
car to see what the trouble was. Little did they know the gas tank was ruptured and when they put the torch under the car KABOOM.
On November 16, 1961 in this very vehicle, Heraclio Espinoza Husband of Mama Espinoza rescued Aileen Saunders, pilot and first President of the Flying
Samaritans and five others when she was forced to land her twin engine Beechcraft on the Mesa above El Rosario as she was running out of fuel ahead of
a dangerous sand storm. This began a friendship between Mama Espinoza and Aileen Saunders which lasted until Ms. Saunders’ death. This also started
the Flying Samaritan’s Clinic in El Rosario where they still treat patients to this day.
