Or like some CL ads that say "ran when parked", "just needs paint".

I wonder if his ol’man is teaching him about “buyer’s remorse”?

Figures, kid completely overlooked the sweet side mount antenna. Guessing he doesn't even know about AM radio.

Cute kid - he's got a future as a fact checker.

While it is loaded on the back of a truck, they should head straight to the scrap metal dealers. Nothing much on this car appears worth saving.

Love the comments ...........it's got a 59ab that turns. Let's scrap it.

I have found more 3.54 rear in junk cars like this one then on the market forsale.. it also looks like it got 15" rims and probably cherry brake drums

No guts, no glory. It would take some time, but if it is the only one around that you can afford and have the talent to weld, replace glass, do upholstery, rebuild an engine, you can bring it back. Then you can tell all the guys that pay to have EVERYTHING done by somebody else to go stuff it. Now That's Priceless!
