Update
Sorry forgot the camera. My friend had his cell so I'll probably have those pics in a day or 2.
Ok went to my friends place to borrow a trailer. He said he had some rock on it and we needed to get that off of course.
I got there and there was a 1 ton and a 3 ton boulder and some rock on it as well. Needless to say that took a bit of engineering to pull off! We had a small tractor and a 4WD pickup. So that being done. I headed off to pick up my help and meet the car lady. The 2 motors were completely rusted inside they had no heads on them. I didn't get 1 tranny cause it was attached to a motor and I didn't bring tools so I'll go back and retrieve it later. There were lots of misc. parts. A couple of alternators, a carb, driveshaft, a complete rear end an extra door in good shape, an extra door I kept for the glass, a convertible top frame, a trunklid , a fan, maybe an extra electronic ignition, lotsa stuff like I said.

The car is complete. It has some rust issues. The interior was light blue, most of it was taken out and stored in a shed where the elements got to it, a very bad shed. So now I have a parts car. The trannies and the head and such are definatelty for sale, but I don't know anything about them of course.
now I go to pass out X_x
