Re: Black L78 1969 SS396 300 Deluxe Post Sedan Found
<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: wheelhop</div><div class="ubbcode-body">Notice the boarded up house in the background?
Seemed like about 20 % of the houses in the area were boarded up and about one house every other block was destroyed by fire. </div></div> Wheelhop this is typical in the Detroit area. The occupants of Detroit vandalize, burn, and destroy almost anything.. A pretty rough area. I was born and raised there, it's kind to bad it could be very nice.city. A aplace you don't wanna be after dark.

The neighborhood where this car was photographed was probably beautiful and prosperous 30 years ago. Too bad. The homes actually look nice here. Similar thing going on in some of the hoods near Cleveland. Not as bad as Detroit though.

Yeah, that neighborhood does look like it was very nice way back when.
What a shame. Took a few pics early yesterday when Jim (Wheelhop) brought the car to my shop. More to come later. Original drums and rotors still on it. Looks like a Lakewood rollbar, right? |

I love how crisp the Kansas City trim tags usually are. At least that has been my experience, this one looks great.

Phil W. </div></div> Yes, except for my shaky old hands blurring it. I cleaned one of the spiral shocks in the rear, and it has a 69 date with an F41 part number. I'll check the other shock today when Dan comes over to help me strip the junk off the car. |
