Haha. Those graves are probably the least tasteful stuff I've seen all week!

It could be worse! They could have half buried the actual car like a tombstone. Like the Cadillacs at Cadillac Ranch in Amarillo, Texas. June

I see that they both expired on the same date, I wonder what the 850 looked like afterwards?

They shouldn’t be in a straight line, either.

Russia, I guess. But why not, P80s are great. I might have my ashes buried in a T5. which is way more space saving than that 460 Ford I keep around for that purpose 😁

Over here we're discussing mandatory recycling of metal implants after cremation and before burial. Together with stuff from the coffin. I'm guessing the car would get taken out then..
