Wow, that looks cherry. And out of a V6 you say? I didn't know they put V6s into 82 Deltas. I thought they were all 307s. Anyway, that doesn't matter.

Up here the mostly take the jacks out of the cars before they go out in the yard. Then you have to ask to look at their jack collection if there's one you want. Anyway, the reason they do that is cause they put all the cars up off the ground and they don't want anyone hurt trying to lift or reposition the car. Nice score! How much?
