Default A4 Air Base (Pictures)

So the car got a bath and wax today.

With nothing to do I figured I would snap some pictures. There is this abandoned Navel Air Base near by so I went there but since the last time I was there there (two years ago) they have started to fence things off and tear things down. There used to be a few air craft hangers, meeting rooms, garages, fall out shelters and random stuff. I can only get to one building now though... too bad it would have made for some cool shots.

So here are some pictures of my stock, no naturally beautiful car.

EDIT:
I forgot to say...
The Air Base was destroyed by Hurricane Andrew in 1992.
The base has been open and abandon until very recently. (It did seem kind of dangerous to me to leave those buildings up.)

Awesome urban exploring opportunity! Groovy pics; I'm guessing you weren't able to get the car close to the building?

I got one but I didn't really like it. You couldn't see most of the building because it was so overgrown.

You know it could have been. It sort of looks like it. Maybe they had one on base.
I didn't go in too far because it kind of sketched me out and I was alone. LOL. I didn't want to get jumped or fall into the floor or have the place cave in.

You should snag some of those seats. I don't know what you'd do with them but you can never have too many seats.

^Oh good call! I should grab a bench of those to put in my living room. I don't have enough seats.
