The green one was driven regularly until an oil gallery plug blew out some years ago. It was garaged since. The other two don't have much left of value, but the deal was that I could have the good one if I took the others away.
My wife hasn't seen them yet, and I don't know where to hide them. The garage is nearly full, and so is the back yard. I guess the will be busy tomorrow, at least on the junks.

Mary must be a saint! Then again I'm trying to justify selling one teener to pay for finishing the other while looking at Formula Vee and Formula Mazda stuff...

My best,
Mike D.

I get enough from my wife just having 2 old cars in the garage, can't imagine if I came home with that.
Green car looks nice though.

Have fun

Good Deal.... Just cover them with Leaves...

COOL! The green one looks like mine. I am not so lucky, I can't bring home anymore strays. That's too bad, cause I found a 928 the other day I wanted really bad.

Yeah I want to BAD! But I already have two 914s a 944, 911 and a project motorhome. I need to downsize.

Just tell Mary that the green one is for her. She won't even notice the other two.

Car on right. The boards keep the center from touching the ground.

Cover then with white tarps and nobody will notice until spring.

Fred and Barney would have paid good money for the center car.

The interior isn't too shabby, but it needs a steering wheel.

Sounds like a plan to me.
It'll be her Christmas present in 2008, when I finish working on it.

Posted by: jd74914 Nov 13 2004, 08:29 PM

You're restoring them all Chris?
I love that trailing arm and wheel.

You can hide them in the cat tails next to your house , noone will ever notice them.

Dear God!! Those rust shots make me want to run out to the garage and spray acid fixer all over the teener!

Posted by: Racer Chris Nov 13 2004, 09:01 PM

lol, If I push them down that hill they're never coming back out!

Posted by: Rleog Nov 13 2004, 10:11 PM

.....looking at that trio makes me feel that mine wasn't such a bad pickup after all!

Here's to ya!

Chris, what's your intention, repair then sell? Hopefully you will get another teener back on the road.

Doesn't look like there's much left from the 2 rust buckets.

Don't forget to log the VIN's of the rust buckets. Anyone know where the thread is for logging the scrapped VIN's?
