Found a teener, 2 miles from my house Options

[mepstein]

This car was bought new by a local doctor in '75 and driven to work about 80K. Ran up until it was brought in for a clutch and repair was never done. Car has sat for the last 4 years. Service station is only a couple miles from my house but the car was parked around back and I never saw it until today. I GPS'ed the owners address and he was another 3 miles down the road. Went over to his house and asked about the car. It was supposed to be sold for 1K but deal fell through. I made cash offer, he took it and signed over title. Now just have to figure out how to get a non running car up a steep unpaved hill to my workshop. Then decide if it is worth restoring or parting. PS- I will not be the one restoring so it will probably be in the classifieds soon. Car seems solid but there is obviously rust in all the normal spots. Also looks to be all origional with the fuel injection still on the engine.

Weird, I've noticed a few local ones around here lately as well. One at a VOA lot for $999 (must be a total rusty bucket), another yellow one at a towing yard in Clearview, another yellow one under some old 18-wheeler box trailer and I think another one we noted somewhere else.

Probably all parts cars. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif)

I went by VOA to look at that one today. Already sold and the new owner apparently has it running. No idea about rust but apparently it had no exhaust system.
