OK, here goes.
I bought this car last year in Connecticut, it was non running, original somewhat documented with 63K miles. Last time the car was registered was in 1990. The reason it stopped running was because of a fuel leak at a shop and the car got evicted from the premises right away and that was it. Attached image(s)
