I know there are LOTS of good abandoned cars out there that are rusting day by day. It's sad IMO. But I'm looking for a good muscle car such as an '69 Camaro, '70 Cuda, '69 Chevelle, etc. to fix up. If anyone knows where i can find abandoned lots, please let me know right away. Thanks.

The cars you mentioned are not likely to be found abandoned - those are all classic's (as you mentioned). You may be able to find a project car on the cheap in those years, but even they won't be all that "cheap" and if they are the amount of work required to restore them will be significant. That doesn't mean you won't happen across the rare "little old lady selling her 1970 xyz" for far less than market value, but thats more the exception.
The key thing to look for is a car without rust -- so pick one of the ddesert states to do your search.

Check the local penny saver type papers. They're the mags you find in the gas station with garage sales and cheap cars for sale. I've found several like that. Word of mouth works well too. Put the word out what you're looking for. Also helps to cruise around back streets and roads and look. Dont go snooping around an abandoned or old car. Try to find the owner first.

1) the bottom of lakes
2) at the police impound lots and their auctions
3) jail inmates doing time appreciate a good car and theirs are stored at their parents house - just put the word out for an inmate doing lots of time and willing to sell (personally inspect the car though).
4) some merchant marines and career soldiers who rarely drive theirs and want the cash but can't find the time to sell.
5) cars for sale in the incorrect venue, for instance: a low mileage Jaguar E-Type in the local newspaper.

try the Indian reservations in Arizona, I took a trip out there a few years ago and they had a lot of old cars sitting around their double wides, just sitting there rotting away.
