Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS
Check out the prices when you come to Chicago for Vette-Fest. Highest in the country, I believe.

pulling dads 69 Impala SS 427 out of storage

where it sat parked http://img139.imageshack.us/img139/5345/dsc00081wk6.jpg saying goodbye to old stable mates! http://img453.imageshack.us/img453/1784/dsc00082si6.jpg seeing the outdoors for the first time in nearly 2 decades http://img139.imageshack.us/img139/631/dsc00083ln5.jpg left rear http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/1184/dsc00084ss8.jpg getting locked and loaded http://img139.imageshack.us/img139/8159/dsc00085dg6.jpg to 99% of the population this is an old clunker http://img149.imageshack.us/img149/4843/revealfk9.png and of course, after 1 1/2 year of hiding the car, dad is given his 50th birthday present! this car was his brothers in the early 1970's and had been reposessed at that time. dad did a good thing and took down the VIN in the early 70's. i found the VIN and was successfull in back tracking the car to its present owner. the owner thought it was a marvelous story and sold the car to myself and my siblings. i will post pics of the car under restoration in the future. car is: 1969 SS 427 Impala Convertible. Garnet Red, parchment interior, auto, consoule, 8 track. original motor/trans came with car. will be restored to stock specs there were 4 sheds where this car was stored. each shed was around 100 yards in length. i would estimate 30 or so cars on each side of the shed totaling 60 or so cars per shed. the storage owner didnt want us snooping around, however when the owner went back to the house 3 of us sprinted to the back of the shed and power walked looking at all the cars that had been there in "long term" storage. everything in there was older than 1975, it was an amazing power walk! |

69 Pontiac 2+2
One of 10 Canadian built Pontiac 2+2's with the 390hp 427/4 speed combos. One owner car with 31000 original miles. Unfortunately the car sat on a dirt floor in a damp garage for years. The undercarriage is pretty rusty as is the engine compartment. Interior full of mold etc. Still can be saved..
