Inside looks pretty good for 41 years old. Original radio & lighter.

That odometer looks like 37,378 to me. I have that right side lens from an 80 Century I parted a year or so back.

Rear spoiler intact. If you look closely you can see it has rear defrost. My other (2) Aeros do not have this option.

Turbo hood & wheels intact.

Wow you are one dedicated dude! 🙂

If you strike out on finding the turbo I have one that needs a rebuild sitting in my parts bin. I think I have a carb too.

I would love to take you up on that. When I get back I will contact you. Thanks for posting 👍
 
You know, this free car is not free. You have fuel costs as well as wear and tear on your truck and trailer. This doesn't include unforeseen variables.
It might be cheaper and easier to fly out to the car, meet a transport company rig at the car, load it up and then fly home.
Just looking out for you.
Either way, you've got a great story.

Awesome to hear. Is it still parked in the street or can someone move it elsewhere? Sorry to hear about that guy’s injury but glad it’s working out to get the car.

A free car is free in my mind. Fuel cost is negligible in my wallet. I rig my own trailer, and have lots of experience. It would never be cheaper to fly out, rent a car, pay a transport company, and fly back. Those expenses is what makes this car unobtainable for most. In all seriousness, thanks for looking out. In addition, I don't know if a transport company would load up a non-running car with no title, and flat tires. I trust myself more than a transport company. Plus the adventure is half the fun!!
 
If it works out for you? I will contribute to the missing peices to se it get back to the glory days. I am never going back to that stuff and don't care what happens to my car when I pass, so it is yours if you need it.
Incredible! Thanks Zach. I will definitely take you up on that. You guys are the BEST!
