Default Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS

A few weeks ago on craigslist I came across an ad that stated, "Parting out 1969 Chevelle." There was a single 3/4 front picture showing what looked like an SS rally wheel, but no mention of SS in the ad. I called, and sure enough it was a real SS car. Original Cortez Silver with a Parchment interior and factory 4-speed. The disc brakes (already sold) and two rallys were the only worthwhile parts left on the car. I ended up with the rallys. Not a salvageable panel on it, except for the floorpan. I guess the car had been rolled over a decade ago and had been sitting in the towing yard ever since. Sad end to what must have been a beautiful car when new.
