Wow, this would be a shame not to strip this one. Look at that grille, chrome, etc.

Assuming the guy wants $1,200.00, this would be a horrible waste for someone not to grab.   Let's hope a CLC member adopts this unloved, beautiful orphan.  James

Nice find.  I asked about buying the entire car and was told "body not for sale"

I would have worked on Lars to buy it if it "were for sale." He's slightly closer than I am and has a trailer. Most likely he doesn't have a title and I know from experience last year that IN is a bear on getting a new or even a salvage title. This guy does this all the time. (I've seen his ads before) and he pulls them out to his field and sells what he can, then junks the rest for scrap price.

Makes me wonder what his prices are like.  Those seats are near perfect from the photos he has provided.  While not the most liked, worth saving. The hubcaps look very nice.  Dash is probably good.   I just can't get over that grille and front clip.

Barry,
Yeah... the old I just couldn't get a title so I have to scrap it BS!! Pretty sad! I guess a lot of people are asleep to allow this vampire to acquire these cars in the first place.
