I'd be embarrassed to post those pictures if they were my cars. Look at all that rare GM muscle rotting into the ground around it, disgusting really. I've had to store project cars outdoors for an extended time in the past and there are cheap & easy ways to prevent much of that neglect, one involves maybe foregoing the case of JD in favor of some tarps & tie downs...

Thank the man for at least saving these cars from being crushed.
In the '80's I personally parted many muscle cars that were worthless at the time; such as
68w30 drivable wreck, 2 70w30's 1 was drivable rust bucket, 73 and 75 HurstOlds.
69 stage 1 Buick GS
67 GTO HO, 68 428 4sd Bonneville, 2 69 Judges, 69 Firebird 400 4spd convert, 73 GTO 455 4spd 72 4spd TA.
Lots of 67-70 SS396 Chevelles, 70 MonteCarlo SS454, 66 Corvair Yenko Stinger, 75 or so Vegas for their Saginaw 4spd's and and other GM cars I could buy with a muncie 4spd.
The above mention cars were all purchased for $300.00 or less, the majority bought through local police abandoned vehicle pound sales or the local insurance salvage pool.
That's the way it was in the parts business back in the '80"s.

I'd like to ask him his definition of "rot free" when the bottom three inches of his trunk lid are gone and mother nature has made a thunderbird-esque porthole window in his quarter panel. I wonder if I'll have to send my social security number and bank account routing number to a Nigerian Prince who will send his associate with the car after my funds clear?

455Olds, you launder money for the Prince too? I started working for him right after my email address won the lottery in England. Strange my money hasn't hit my account yet and I can't seem to keep money in that account but
