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.

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS
A friend of a friend inherited his parent's farm. Seems they never got rid of any of their vehicles.
Plans are in the works to haul these things away while scrap metal is still up. Seems a local scrap metal vendor will pay $300 - $500 per car, depending on the weight. I'm told almost every car has a title! These have been sitting in the woods for MANY years. A '66 Chevelle 4-door was recently removed, and while being towed on a roll-back, the back window and gas tank fell out! Anyway, this is just a sample of what it there!  I took a liking to this '69, I might snag it!  This thing had power everything!  There are a bunch of this body style Chevy truck!    Big 'en   Some full size select-a-doors         The bill of sale is still in the glove box!      Someone cut a hole in the right front fender to take the heater blower motor    Hmmmm

Re: ROTTING MUSCLECARS
hey its worth the hassle to get the hood chrome and especially the fender & eyebrow chrome if its not creamed on that white '67 4dr Caprice, when I had mine a few years ago the pass eyebrow went for $150/200 or more if it was decent... perfect = $$$ probably more today, almost chicken lips in the big car world for the pass side, I still think there not made repo yet.

Very cool Rick. Lots of pieces (cars even) that can be saved...Looks like it could be fun!  [/ QUOTE ] I was actually hoping to pull good parts off some (or all) of these cars last fall, but never found the time.
