Like a kid trying to make a hot rod and then give up halfway through.
The dry air makes southern Arizona and haven for junk yards. If you are into old aircraft (and some newer stuff put into storage) we have a number of boneyards. The best know boneyard is the one north of Tuscun off the I10. You can see the tails of the larger aircraft from the freeway.

For me looking and both the old cars and aircraft makes me wonder what kind of life they had before ending up in a junkyard. Especially when you see some of the old miltary aircraft.
