I thought I would park it there for safe-keeping, I didn't want anything bad to happen to it.

Does it run? Can you deliver? Is there a warranty?

Quick, somebody call Freiburger & Finnegan. That's an episode of Roadkill right there!
Vacuum up all the rubble and stuff in an old big block Chev motor and TH400, and that would make one fine ratrod, methinks.




Paint is way over rated anyway.
