At around 2 AM on September 9, 2019, someone set fire to the oldest Cadillac at Cadillac Ranch: the 1949 Club Sedan, furthest to the west. The jerks who did it were no doubt pushed to this extreme because the usual tool of monument jerk-vandalism -- spray paint -- would be invisible on the Cadillac Ranch cars, already smeared with countless layers of spray paint by adoring visitors.
Photos of the damage show that the victim car was charred, with some of its metal knocked off, but otherwise still similar to the other nine already-battered wrecks at Cadillac Ranch. After a few days of visitor spray-painting, most pilgrims probably won't notice the difference.
[RoadsideAmerica.com Team, 09/10/2019]As we approached we saw something flapping in the wind and hanging from the rear wheels of most cars. On closer inspection, they were large trash bags full of mostly empty spray paint cans. Glad to see this improvement to the site.

Really disappointing in how trashed the area is. Spray cans left everywhere, trash, shoes from being sooo muddy.
