Transplant, Don't Bury

Transplant, Don't Bury, Texas, 1997.
I think the bumpersticker on this probably relates to being an organ donor.

I like the idea of "transplanting" car parts rather than burying them. Of course, they usually get compacted and melted down as scrap metal, not buried, but you get the point.

This car was apparently bulldozed into a slope as a method of erosion control, somewhere in Texas. It may have had the double function of reinforcing the fence that it's next to. I don't remember exactly where I saw this, but it was adjacent to a tract of the Lower Rio Grande Valley National Wildlife Refuge. I wish I'd taken a shot of the overall scene, but alas.
