I know this is a different forum, but this is one that got saved - although it's gonna cost him a lot of money in the end -

wow, I like the pictures. Kind of reminds me of deer hunting... "Hey, I think see a Z28 camaro! Nope, I was wong its just a log".





I wish I had taken pictures when I first bought all of my car parts. The rear clip was near a fence under an overgrown tree. The other body (60 body) which I sold was under a fig tree with tons of weeds growing around it. Only the 62 body/frame was sitting on blocks. What was bad about it was the 60 frame was in better shape and was just sitting in the dirt. The worse thing to do is put the frame directly on the ground. Luckly, the rust was not that bad since I was able to use the frame.

I had a front yard like that for a while. Me and my then room-mate talked quite a bit about starting an F-body garden. One new F-body per month, no wheels allowed.

Had this as a revolving desktop for a while...
