Very cool Rick. Lots of pieces (cars even) that can be saved...Looks like it could be fun!

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.

My friend got this 64 Chevelle last week, it was suppose to go to the crusher but he found out about it and rescued it. jammed inside was 2 new quarter patch panels and extra floor pans.









The Impala in one picture is a 396/4sp convertible he found this summer that he might start on soon.

I'll definitely check that out.

The AM radio is still in this car too.

It would be a good idea to save those double hump 327 heads from the crusher. Maybe the whole engine, depending on the suffix code.

Not Muscle but it is rotting.

[Dog427435]

If you look long enough - you can find just about anything rotting on the side of the road!!

I just got done looking at ALL 126 pages! Thanks guys! (I think, because now I'm kinda depressed)

Anyways, here is one of my all time tear jerkers. A 1967 RS/SS 4spd 375HP 396 Convertible! All original numbers matching ROTTING in this backyard outside of Detroit for years. I spent years begging the owner to sell me the car as I watched it rot farther and farther into the ground. At first he was a first class prick about it, but then he got pretty nice as he saw me year after year and I was being polite each time and showing genuine interest in the car. On this day he actually showed me the car. That's me in the red shirt. Could not get the hood open without stressing the hood so no underhood shots, sorry. Last time I was in touch with the guy he was moving to a city south of detroit, Riverdale? Romulus? or someother "R" named city. Does anyone know the car?? Did it survive??

I was actually hoping to pull good parts off some (or all) of these cars last fall, but never found the time.
