Chick Renn and I inspected the car on Sunday. Very sad findings. It was pulled out of a field with a tree growing up through the engine compartment in the mid 70s. Then promptly rolled into a low spot behind a house where water gathered during rainy days. Sheetmetal is shot. Only drivetrain component that may be OE is the rear - but it's so badly corroded that no numbers are present. TT shows 02D built X33 car. Green, green, green. Owner says that he's going to "give it a paint job" someday". Not interested in selling it. Not receptive to assistance in simply getting it out of the hole that it's in. Says that he bought it from OO, but won't divulge his name.

Actually nice guy to talk to. We had lunch with he and his wife (super nice). Just delusional (IMO) regarding the car. Another one of those "someday" cars :-(
