The end of the road in Helena Montana

I bet it wouldn't be the end of the road for that '30's Ford (looks like a '34) if a car enthusiast came across it. I don't know how badly rusted it is, but from here those panels, fenders don't looked holed...I could see some hot rodder willing to take a chance on it...put a new frame, powertrain, suspension, , etc....get new glass...make a resto rod of it and prep it up for a bunch of new roads to continue life's adventures.

It's a 4 door, or as Henry the 1rst would of said 'a fordor' and at one time it was only the 2 door coupes...or as Henry the 1rst would've said ...'tudor' ....

that made it as Hot Rods, but nowadays 2 door coupes are not common and the 4 door has become much more acceptable as base material for a 'rod'.

I really like your composition...that old abandoned car, next to the old abandoned house and it looks like you've done some post processing....which I think enhances the composition. Good job !

Wonderful scene here. This type of photography I feel is so interesting that it depicts at one time there was real life going on. End of the Road is a very appropriate title. Thanks very much.

Superb composition. Great image might look good in black and white also.
