Abandoned Car of the Week

This Flxible Visicoach passenger bus was found languishing in an Arizona salvage yard. Flexible manufactured coaches and transit buses from 1913 through its closing in 1996. Flxible built 925 copies of the Visicoach — an update of its clipper-style buses from the '30s and '40s — from 1950 through 1956. The video shows actor Cary Grant getting off a Visicoach on a deserted Indiana highway in Alfred Hitchcock's 1959 movie, "North by Northwest." (Photos by Jim Prueter)
