    39 Zephyr Brakes
    V8-60 Wheels (for $5... not free I know)

    Bought my coupe, turned around and sold the engine and fenders which brought my cost to ZERO! Still have a chassis so it's like getting paid to take the car home!

    My best freebie was a fairly straight and rust-free '33 Ford Tudor sedan body. Sold it for $250 back in 1982. Wish I had kept it. :(

    I got a free 1970 Drug Store calendar that I found under the back seat of an old car I bought once. I still have the calendar, sold the car.

    Power bucket seats going in the Buick. Dealership my wife works at ordered two sets wrong, owner got mad enough to say "I don't care where they go but get them out of here" When Pat found out about that she grabbed a pair.
     
  12. The T-bird I recieved after my Great Uncle had passed away and the family did not want it.

    The Chrysler was sitting in a cousins backyard and belonged to his wife dad and they didn't want the car so I took it.

    that chrysler is cool, scallops look good on it as well.
     
  15. Jumped into the bin at the dump 2 weeks ago and grabbed some old hardcover books. Ebayed them that night with Buy it Now and made a quick $100.00! Bought a 75 Firebird this winter for $200.00 that has 15 x 8 Superior slots with T/A,s all around. A guy is supposed to be here on Sunday to give me $500.00 after I peel the wheels and tires off. Does that make the wheels free???
