    Look what followed me home yesterday after 90 days of back and forth with the previous owner. Can you spot it in the last picture? PXL_20230520_150956279.jpg PXL_20230520_164334056.jpg IMG_20230217_163246~2.jpg

    I even know what I am looking for, and it is still hard to find. Kind of like a cat in a tree. The little car is bitchn. Nice score.

    What is the European-looking car in the lower right of that last picture?

    Looks like it was an engineering task to get it out of there. But the car looks very intact and buildable, and clearly it's going to the right person to bring it back, so that's fantastic. Plans for it?

    Green with envy, great score man you go. Keep unearthing the gems. I think the European car could be a Volvo P400 coupe , just at the cut off year of 1964. They have a quirky potential .

    Believe it or not that is a 55 Chevy 2 door must have caught you off guard with the angle or the scaffolding lines.

    Car in the lower right of the last pic looks like a 55 Chevy 2-door hardtop with radiused wheel wells to me.

    And, amazing find on the Zephyr! :cool:

    OK I see it now. The rear quarter and whatever is laying on the roof was throwing me off. Previous owner had odd storage methods but good taste.
