Strays...and My Mental "Affliction" LOL!

[Rick@Laysons]

I should probably be committed in some kind of mental asylum as soon as possible....

I've been hangin around the "trailer trash" again. Found this sitting between two trailers in a trailer park collecting tree stuff. Wiped off a little of the crud and seen that it's not nearly as bad as it looks. Everything is there and pretty straight for what it is and it's age. The price was very decent, so my mind went into convulsions and the $$$ came out of my pocket.

Now my problem is..........where the hell am I gonna find parts for it????????????

What it cleaned up to be.....

Turned out better than I had expected!

I think I'm going to get it running, driving, and licensed....might be my daily commuter when done.....

that looks like more than 2-3 years worth
is it or was it by a gravel quarry or pig/dairy farm or something
with all the sediment/dirt
or is it moss/fungi, some sort of mold or something in a wet climate

It really looks 110% better now

My first car was a 65 Dart. A 270 two door post with a HP 273 and a 3 on the tree. Now that it's gone, I find out it was one of 4 or 5 with that combo.

Doused with stinky bayou sewage water?

I can sell you a head start on the engine...

You did the right thing Rick

 

[Rick@Laysons]

More like the typical PNW stew.....a mixture of firs, cedars, and pine tree needles soaked in whatever atmospheric river that happens to be passing by.......

No quarries or farms local to it....just the usual Northwest grunge.....

The other "Grundge" the PNW is known for.

 

[Rick@Laysons]

Well......I think I can say with a fair amount of confidence that there have been no mice or vermin residing in the seats....

....and the good part is that the numbers on this sheet match the numbers on the fender tag!!!! I'm pleasantly surprised!
