This Hatch appears abandoned or stolen, does anyone recognize it?

 

That's a fairly recently issued license plate.  Someone owns that car, and went through the effort and expense of registering a carbureted car in California.  It may be broken down,  stolen then dumped there, or parked long term at that train station (as at an airport).  Call your Sheriff, have them check it out.

Just my 2 bucks.
