Somebody save this one...

This one is where all our third gens started....somebody save it! This car stole the hearts of car guys around the country when this car rolled out on the race track! Wish I had the money!

Frame off???? lol

Its not a shame. Its only a shame if somebody doesn't fix it and it ends up rusting to the ground or is turned into scrap. Im happy somebody is selling it. Hopefully somebody that will fix it will end up with it.

Gotcha, It's a 360m drive to Huntsville for you, then another hundred. A long road trip for sure!

Parts car/organ donor - sometimes one must die so that others may live.
