    And then a few days later I found this one hiding in the back of this sedan delivery.

    Never rains but pours....

    Yes It had to have been stored in someone' ba*****t. Wrong steering wheel and some parts missing but an easy fix. PM me if you have any spare parts.

    Wow,what a find!

    One time I was dumping some s**** metal @ the local recycler and the guy ahead of me in line tossed a silver pedal car or something off of the back of his truck. I said to myself "I'm totally grabbing that". i finally get up there and it's a piece of **** 80's mercedes benz pedal car. Huge disappointment.....

    why the hell would anyone put that in the dump? Even an idiot would realize it is worth a few bucks and probably pretty easy to unload.

    Gotta love the *****s that throw stuff out for "us" to find!
    I scored this '71 Sting Ray at the Recycling Company I worked at earlier this year.
    It's all original,all I did was give it a good cleaning!

    I grew up a mile from the dump, my best friends dad owned it. I wish I knew then what I know now , I would have a hanger full of collectable stuff people threw away if I did
