Here's one I found the other day, in a town on the Alaska highway. A 68 Firebird 400 Convertible.
No one answered the door, but you could see trash all through the house.

Which end of the highway? That way I'm not looking at both sides of a 2000 mile road.

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS

These are a few that we have around here.
First is a Buick that has been removed from it's resting place.

It's more on my end, but I'm going to try and see if it's available for me first, as it's my favorite year and model of a Firebird. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

[b] Some Rot for you Mopar lovers -
These were found all within a one block area on the south shore of Long Island.
I guess it's pretty obvious the oceans not far away!

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS

Honestly, if that was sitting out in front of my house, I'd call to have that POS towed away...

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS

Don't they have any city codes to inforce? If that thing sat on a city street here for more than a week, it would get ticketed, at 30 days, towed. Impound fees after a week would make you think twice about reclaiming it, and waiting for it to go to the impound annual auction, foggeddaboutit.

If you really wanted to get technical - it's also parked on the wrong side of the street!

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS

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

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS

Wish I could be there...but I have a more important thing to do that weekend https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif

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!

Re: pulling dads 69 Impala SS 427 out of storage

WOW!! Great story - Good job tracking it down -
Your Dad's a lucky man to get such a great birthday gift.
Good luck with the restoration - send pictures

Now where were those sheds again?? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif

Re: pulling dads 69 Impala SS 427 out of storage

Great car, Great story.....please keep us posted with the resto.

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..
