ROTTING MUSCLECARS

[Judges4u]

I have some really nice pics of two cars rotting away and the owner will not sell; but he likes to see them rot away while he drinks his life away with Pabst Blue ribbon.

Last winter, I was up in PA picking up a rare 69 GTO column shift parts car. I'm always on the prowl like you guys and low and behold while driving past a dumpy old house with a boat load of junk cars in the front, yard I see the front end of what appears to be a Torino. So I stop and look around. I walk up to the front door, and hear a bunch of zoo noises coming from the house; at least 30 dogs and cats were peering out at me through the windows, and beer cans were everywhere like a mine field!!! No one answers the door, but a li'l old lady next door peeps her head out the screen door and says are you here asking about the cars? Well, as you can imagine, I was not the first to enquire. I said yes, and she said I can give you a number to the owner's daughter. The owner was an old recluse who was drunk on his butt every day.

I call his daughter and told her I would give her $45K for both cars. She was surprised and said at least you haven't low balled me on the price! She said the cars were not for sale and that they would be towed away next summer. Well, the cars are still there.

The first car is a Blue 68 Shelby 4 speed unmolested and the second car is a rare 70 (I think) Torino 428 Cobra Jet convertible with a tree that grew through the trunk!!!

The first pic depicts the mound of beer cans (five feet in diameter) and a few feet high in some places.

Thanks for a very interesting web site and happy hoidays to you and your families.
