I haven't seen one of these since the '80's. It belonged to acquaintance of my in-laws. His car was a ragtop. It was in very good shape, and mostly original save for the set of Cragar rims and raised-letter tires. It was medium blue with a black & white interior. The day I saw it, a friend of mine was driv- ing it. Boy, was she lucky! Wished that I was the one behind the wheel. Even today, I can still hear that old 413 rumbling 'neath the hood. Sure hope someone fixes her up. She deserves it.
Yeah Tony, that broke my heart too. To see that old sedan sitting there just made me sick. She looks pretty solid from here. If I had my way, she'd be here in sunny Florida--parked behind my house where I could work on her any time I wanted to.
Best of OPC.

great scene with the dog, people, little red house, cigarette. the "preferred customer" sticker stabbed me in the heart.
