I don't think the 71 and 72 Chevelles had these brackets that are pointed out in red below.

I think it is a 68-69 Olds Cutlass but the color has me questioning that. Verdoro Green?

I think you may be right Rick after seeing the first picture you linked. Like you say, an unusual color for the Olds if that is it.

My guess would have been a 71-72 Skylark Convertible. They made quite a few in this color.

Cant be a convertible with an upper package tray and speaker mounting holes. That's where the top mechanism would go.

We need to start a new thread: "ID the unknown junker"

[b] When we were in high school, we took a push button 413 out of a Chrysler that looked like this and
put it in a '41 Willys that I had bought from a local body shop for $35!!

I guess the Monte I saw on the hook a couple weeks ago wasn't this one that still sits on Rt. 100
just north of Eagle.

This is not really rotting, but is my friend Earl's daily driver. Earl's been a hot rodder for ever
building and still owning a '34 Ford and old COE home built ramp truck and an almost complete Opel
with an old hemi and all the other wild stuff - Earl's a white collar guy who decided a couple years ago,
why only drive the cool stuff on the weekend. He drives this primed out pick up everywhere, complete
with an ever changing load of period speed equipment in the bed. COOL!!

Glenn that is one awsome truck! I think that I had seen that a couple of years ago. I don't remember what was in the bed though, but it was cool! May have been a flat head with 3 2's?

I know the owner of the red “fire truck” as he calls it. No motor or trans in the truck. Body sits on a 80s Ford truck frame. I tried to sell the truck for him a few years ago, no luck……

I found this in Westerly, RI today on the way home. The writing indicates it had belonged to Card Chevrolet, I think they are still in the Eastern Part of Conn. I can not tell if the paint is a faded Red or Hugger Orange, possibly indicating it was used in the late 60's or early 70's.
