..."Almost sold it last summer but wife talked him out of it, he had the car when they started dating."

And she'll get it when they divorce. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/grin.gif

Rick,
Are you a member of the he man woman hater's club? I'm witcha on that one! https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS

If the car they dated in looks like that now, I can only imagine what the wife looks like now... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/eek.gif

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS

I would've done a tailight shot for you boys but I didn't bring my wide-angle lens and a headlight shot would've broke my camera.

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS

Strongly suggest pulling the intake on that Chevelle and look for evidence of critters in the valley area before you hit they key to try it. Maybe even go through the entire engine and check out any and everything.

Friend here paid major bucks for one of Bergers original Z28's that was in the middle of complete resto a few years back. Don't know what possessed him to pull that intake, but was sick when he found the chipmunk Hilton in there. Fresh rebuild on a very big$$ car. Needless to say he was sick about it. Then a racoon got inside it while up on the hoist. Not sure what that did.

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS

I would think there are a few things living in that engine bay

[b] My son had basketball camp with the Hoop Group up in NJ and we passed the Langhorne Speedshop
on Route 1 on the way there yesterday. This place has been there forever and had all kinds of stuff
in the parking lot and surrounding the building. Being Sunday they were closed but this '69 Camaro
had a for sale sign on it, so we had to stop and look. Saying it was rough is being real nice!
There were a few other rotting musclecars there that didn't have signs, but were interesting.

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS

Ahhhh, a future numbers matching 409 car for sure! An original 283, so the VIN is for a V8 car! Stop by and grab the VIN and cowl tag info just for the safety of the future of the hobby!
I can tell the car was built after Jan. The gas tank on the floor is from an El Camino and I see a heater blower motor delete plate on the floor.
Black on red.......just what everyone wants!!!

Thanks for thinking of me. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif Someday, all that info will be passed onto SOMEONE after I'm pushing up daisys...

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS

------Verne,,,Look closely at that bubble as it appears to have been white originally. Agree that it will probably become more than it is. Actually I think it would be more fun (although less return) to make it an authentic appearing 327/300, 4-spd. Maybe add a 62 Vette injection unit and 30/30 cam to the mix. Chrome reversed wheels and cheaters on the back. What do you think???..........Bill S

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS

I don't think Chevrolet made any of those with small blocks. They must have all been 409s.. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/eek.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...emlins/eek.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/rolleyes.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/rolleyes.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/hmmm.gif

Yep, the cowl area looks original and it's white. I missed that because the black looked like it'd been there forever!

Man they built those Corvairs tough! I think the valet at that place should definitely be fired though. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/wink.gif

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS

[b] Found this 2nd gen near home the other day - Looks rough, but someone is doing something -
wheels are all cleaned up and it has new tires. Don't know if that's where I'd start?

Not muscle but interesting!

An old barn on a back road near me recently fell apart, and exposed this '57 Lincoln that hasn't seen the sun in years.

[b] It's nice to see this old Lincoln made it out of the barn in 1 piece. It is not really in that bad of a
shape after such a long hibernation! Beside the paint falling off, and surface rust -
It looks in GREAT condition!
The rear plate is from 1958!

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS

Maybe the people of Tulsa should of tried a barn instead of a concrete tomb..... https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/smile.gif

Nice to that Lincoln out in one piece.

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS

Dang she is a 2dr cool! Dog did you pull it , did ya get her running?, cool sat night burger car

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS

Not yet a musclecar (some say no Corvette is)and probably the least desirable years for the Corvettes, but we dug this out of a garage yesterday where it had been sitting since the early 90's. Was perfect when put away then, (too many tickets, lost his license), probably wouldn't take that much to put back. But, original owner was just moving it from the house he sold to a new one he bought. Probably sit another 15 years. Tons of offers when we were loading it up by people driving by (Woodward cruise weekend, you could sell anything around here this past week)...but he won't sell it. Thinking of having a "resurrection" party this winter in my garage sometime this winter. We get really bored here in January/February. Kinda fun to bring one back, but must be done right.
