As I drove by a couple of weeks ago, I saw a pair of '59 Chevy fins parked on the other side of a van in their side lot, and several days before that, I saw the grill of a '68 or '69 Dodge Charger, again mostly hidden by something parked closer to the street side of it. When I finish my A/C install, I plan on having these guys do a good evac and charge for me. They did my wife's A/C diagnosis and charge about two months ago.
 
Saw this parked in a driveway this morning while out for a drive, looks like it hasn’t been driven much lately. One of my top three dream cars.

I just took a ride over to inquire about the H/O, nobody was home. May try and get over there again tomorrow and try again. Got a closer look at it and it’s a possible driver but needs a body restoration as there is rust bleeding through all over the place. The seem of the driver’s rear quarter to the roof is bubbled and rusting from underneath the paint, the front of the hood is rotten but the H/O hood scoop is intact as are the twin H/O specific door mirrors. The interior looks pretty good but the radio is missing (not a big deal) and the original steering wheel is gone and replaced with a wood grain aftermarket with an Olds center cap. The Hurst floor shifter is there as well. All in all I think it could be a driver quality ride in the interim if it runs and the trans shifts, obviously the brakes, chassis and suspension would need a thorough inspection. Definitely worth saving and throwing some money and effort at.

I spotted this guy at the Findlay Ohio salvage vehicle inspection. Possibly the same car posted as stolen on the Power Tour? Here’s the car in the thread, it’s closed for replies otherwise I’d have posted there.
