My dads neighbor brought this over to the front of his driveway today. Said he didn't know what the tree was there wasn't many branches. Is it pine? That off leaf at the bottom looks like it had came off a different tree I was thinking. Lots of vines grew on it too. I have a LOT to learn with my Tree ID skills and appreciate the help here very much.

Thanks for the replies guys much appreciated
 
I would have thought spruce or white pine (about the same difference) ...covered in poison ivy vines. Though I tend to think all vines are poison ivy ...though around here, they usually are!
 
The vines look like English Ivy to me, suggesting the tree grew in a yard and therefore might have been planted rather than a naturally occurring tree. Norway Spruce fits that description but so do a few other conifers

It was a yard tree his neighbor has maybe a .5acre lot and it came out of his backyard. I was thinking spruce too thanks!
 
Great for the outdoors for sure....
 
If you can get to the original branches grab a hand full of needles. If it bites back it is spruce.
 
I'd guess hemlock or spruce.
 
First guess: Spruce.

Second guess: Pine.
 
Yep, pine with a dose of poison ivy :)
