I'll post a few pics over the next few days of various cars that I drive past each day that catch my eye. Always curious as to what they are, or what they could be....

Here is one that I've been driving past for 2 years now, and it has never moved - been for sale the whole time. Looks like a decent Father / Son project as a first car or a base race car, even has the 350TPI option - the price looks pretty good.

Was looking at one of those a little while back, and the 350 is a bonus. That's a good deal as I believe that's a future collectible for sure.

2500 bucks for an L98 Formula??? If that was within driving distance I'd be on my way to get it right now.

Yea, on the surface it appears to be a good deal - primarily because of the 350.

I must be driving through '68-'69 Chevelle country every morning!

This one has been next to this gas station / garage for at least the last 13 years:

This one is barely noticeable, but the owner must have punched the garage door over the Winter and it won't shut. So, this project car became visible:

This one showed up last November, sans doors, and was left outside all Winter. It's a long range pic, but appears to have a white interior:

Here's something I spotted on the way to lunch a couple of months back.

Man, that vega almost looks photoshop'd, its so small compared to that minivan and truck! Maybe its just me....

Old5.0, if you want to keep some of your finds like that cool vega private, block out the dealer tag <span style="font-style: italic">next time </span>on the minivan.
I bet someone is already hunting it in Olathe considering this is a Yenko site <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/smile.gif.
Try to get there first, you found it first!

The number on the telephone pole will also give the exact location. It's a shame we have to be so careful. I agree with you that it does look a little small and I cannot see any reflection (I know it's dirty) on the side of the Chevy truck.

They'll be looking awhile if they're looking for it in Olathe. <<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif

Seriously, not trying to hoard it, just trying to save the owner some hassle.

And no, not a photoshop. Snapped by yours truly. Besides, those lovely white squares over the license plates represent the upper limit of my photo manipulation skills.

Speaking of Vegas, I pass this one every day....

A good friend of mine had a formula 350 Firebird just like that except no power options and a radio delete. That thing was crazy fast and handled like it was on rails.

I agree, I'm so tempted to buy that Formula 350 for my son Benjamin - but....I already have a Jr Dragster and '69 Nova SS for him, and he's 13....but it's a good deal and he could race it when he's out of Jr's....but...but...

The blue vega wagon was at Spring Carlisle for sale, but didn't. It was back on that lot for a couple of weeks, but is now gone. The chevelle in the distance pic was moved to the driveway, and is now gone.

Pass this one every now and then, pretty sure it's a '68 - just sits out there, even through the Winters....

Wife &amp; I went for drive last Sunday &amp; come across this Vette sitting in a body shop compound. Still doesn't look too bad to restore
