    there were a few old cars in the woods out back my house at 1 time. 1 was a '70 Hemi Roadrunner.. rusted to peices back there.. my dad pulled it out so he could harvest the Hemi ( friends with the land owner ) and put it the '68 Cornet he had.. ended up selling the cars to a restorer

    Funny, we just did a BC/CC respray of a 70 Malibu this past week.
    Instead of being part of the problem, be part of a successful solution.

    Mea culpa...
    I'm one of those guys.
    I had two `49 Bonus F1 Fords sitting in my shed for thirty years...was always 'gonna rebuild them someday'.
    Marriage, family, work, mortgages etc got in the way.
    Four or five months ago I decided the time/finances were right.
    Pull them out and DO IT!

    They quite literally fell to bits.

    (Reminder to self; if I ever get to meet Dave Severson, never turn my back...or I'll get a swift kick...)
