They are out there. This is an L78 with 26K on it that my father bought new. He turned it into a drag car in 71', raced it with an L72 in Stock class until 81' and it has basically been covered and parked since. He kept everything except the transmission (sold it to get a Super T-10), tires, and exhaust. He has the original window sticker, loan papers, and because it arrived while he was still in Vietnam, pictures of my grandparents picking it up at the dealer for him. He got a letter from his dad asking why you buy a car that runs, steers, and looks like a John Deer tractor!
Long story short, after having the car this long, he doesn't have the cash/desire to put it back to stock, but could never sell it due to sentimental reasons. I started to give him the "it just isn't right to leave it sit" speech and one day he told me he always planned to give it to me anyway. It came with two stipulations - 1)I would never sell it while he is above ground and 2) I have to let him take it to some shows if I am not planning on taking it.
