Old cars rotting away on your route?

The Cushman would be an interesting project to fix up.

I want the Studebaker at the rear.

Me too but I really want the apache that's directly behind the studebaker.

I had a buddy in High School who's father was a Studebaker-Packard mechanic. He had one of these, that my friend and I put many miles on:

Top speed of about 48 mph and rides like a lumber wagon.

That's the way to buy them. Let someone else spend the tens of thousands of dollars and hundreds of man hours to build it and then you can buy it for a fraction of what they had invested. Hot rods are not a good money making"investment".

Agreed.....but this lil hot rod didn't cost "tens of thousands of dollars" or take "hundreds of man hours" to build. This thing looks right out of the mid-seventies. $5000 tops. The front end is worth more than the rest of the car. Simple, light, and dangerous as hell to street race. Saw a lot of guys get hurt bad in these things. Good cruiser, though.

Not necessarily a rust heap, but it was something seen on route and I was about to haul a big heavy carpet to the door...

The guy had just towed this to his house when I saw it. I was going to be a project car. I'm waiting to see how long before it's in the backyard or just sitting in the driveway.

You do know the use of Apache on the pickup is offensive and culturally insensitive, right?

Ill be happy to take it off their hands.

Especially an Apache named "Old Dog".

Is the Chrysler a Dodge Daytona or a Plymouth Superbird? The Ferrari looks like an F40? Someone has excellent taste in supercars!
