Was it like that before you put it on the trailer or did it pop on the ride home?

Oh dear that will be a bugger to get off the trailer

Like that before I put on the trailer. He was driving it down his drive 5 yrs ago and it went. He pulled into his pole barn (with dirt floor) and there it sat until yesterday when I picked it up.

Good looking parts car! Wheels are probably worth the purchase.

That car is ruuuuusty.

Reminds me of a 72 I picked up. Got it all the way to the house and rolled it off the trailer when it folded in half.

That is what mine looked like one month after I graduated from College in July of 1981. I started to smell rubber burning as I drove it home from work. I had borrowed 3k from my folks in September of 1980 to have the car re built and painted. The original estimate from those b*stards was $1500.00. When they finally finished they wanted 3k!

My first experience with the HELL HOLE! At the time I thought the worst day of my life was graduating from college. Little did I know it was 1 month after.
Still loved that car.

My first one (a '70) was like that. It would roll forward OK, but backward that wheel always wanted to go left.
