..and it doesn't appear to be for sale on the Cool Cars only website any longer. I would think that their price on it is too high, regardless. If this car were to be original, what would it be worth if it has the original parts somewhere? If it is original, that will kill me because the poor thing has been sitting there outside for so long. Don't get me off on that tangent either. Hell, it kills me anyway, just because it is a cool car. It drives me nuts to see a car like that sit outside where rust can have it's way with her. There used to be a older couple close to where I used to live that had an original 70 SS 454 Chevelle that was column shift and bench seated. Well, it had SS stripes and such, but maybe it was a clone. I don't think an older couple would have cloned one though and I got the idea that it had been in the family for years. If it was an SS, I assume it was an LS5 car, but I was never able to talk to the husband who owned it.....just the wife. She didn't know anything about it other than it had appraised at $15000+ years ago. It was white with black stripes. I gave them my number and asked them to call me if they ever wanted to sell it, but my number changed and they moved. They had a 2 car garage and yet it sat outside while their mid 80's sedans got the garage. Seeing that thing covered in snow killed me.I tracked the car down a year or so later because they moved, too, and the car was sitting outside in the snow again. I just gave up at that point.
I saw a nice solid 71 or 72 Chevelle sitting buried in snow in a driveway today. Same with a 67 Camaro.
Too bad I'm not rich. I'd buy a huge warehouse and start rescuing these beauties so at least they don't die a gruesome death by rust. We keep losing our history. I know that it makes the remaining ones more valuable, but dang, I can never see too many cool cars in my lifetime. We need to save as many as we can. There are cars like this in practically every dang town, too. Sheesh.

Sorry for the rant.....it just kills me, ya know?
