    If it wasn't for all these parts cars, so many still on the street would not still be there.
    Good thing no one was taking pictures of the cars and trucks I was parting out in the 70s - 2010s. Picture 001.jpg Donor truck,

    Well I finally got tired of looking at the Caddie so I called Pull a Part and they gave me $300 for it and hauled it off. The next week I saw the ad for it in the used cars that they sell and it sold in 2 days for the asking price. Little did I know….. IMG_3001.png

    Found these last year. Cyclone GT 428 4-speed, Cyclone GT 390 4-speed and a old Mustang with a 302 4-speed. All within 35 miles of each other. IMG_6440.JPG IMG_6442.JPG IMG_6443.JPG IMG_1078.JPG IMG_0868.JPG IMG_1078.JPG

    Or the usual bullshit "It has a lot of sentimental value"........ which would explain why it has been left rotting out in the elements to slowly return to Mother Earth.

    Bought and parted out the 390 GT.
    The 428 CJ will be picked up in May or June.
    The Boss 302 Mustang is out of my wallet range

  18. Going by the three cars looks like a collector with expensive tastes.

    The car they are talking about in the title was the last unaccounted for Ferrari 250GT California.
    He wasn't a truck manufacturer he was into the moving/freight business. He started collecting cars in the 50's. The total sale brought 25 mil.
    He had amassed a bunch of fire trucks too of which most if not all have been crushed (40 years in an open field) there also was a lot of popular cars.
    In that photo, next to the Facel is a Georges Irat.

  28. Sure is, and it has a towbar too :D. I wonder how many nice '32 or '34 Fords a man could buy for the same value as what that Citroen has.
