This is a '74 2.0 in Chrome Yellow. Too far gone to save.....but some parts might be useful. Already pulled center console. Fog lights aren't cracked, gauges are intact, glass good, miscellaneous bits to be had.

Check out the hell hole rust!

Actually, there are several brand new Nissan and Toyota parts still in their boxes. They have to be old... This car was also stored in 1992

Was it stored or sunk? It looks more like a pieces car than a parts car.

It was stored in a semi-trailer storage unit....that had a leak. Guess what happens in South Carolina when water is trapped in a metal box?

I'll post pictures of this car's '72 storage mate tomorrow .... It's worse (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif)

These two are strictly for parts.....I won't have them more than a couple weeks.

By the time I part them out and scrap the metal I'll have a very restorable marathon blue '74 and a spare engine and transmission for free. Not bad for a day's work (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif)
