My Fathers Car...
Wednesday, January 03, 2007 7:15 PM
So my father bought this car brand new in 1984. He has obviously had it ever since. The odometer reads 46 7xx kms...but we all know cars from that age still had 5 digit odometers..the car really has 246 7xx kilometers, it has never seen a grain of salt, and actually the only time its ever seen snow was a week or so before Christmas (this year) when i waxed her up and drove it up to my grandfathers for storage. Live on dirt roads so there is no salt, and i just drove very slow.
The last time the car was daily driven was the summer of 1997. It was licensed for 1998, and 1999 and only driven occasionally on weekends to baseball games and what not.
Ever since the car has been sitting in my grandfathers barn. Every summer we take it out, and burn whatever gas is left in it, and put another gallon in with stabilizer. She'll start right up with no problems if you put some gas right down the carb. By the way, it has a 305.
Enjoy...

and..


What do you think?
I wanted him to let me put it into a demolition derby...mm such a solid frame..but it is now 23 years old..he wants to keep it..

You do NOT put a car that nice into a demo derby, especially one that has been that maintained, that's just wrong and should be a crime.

Over all that car is BEAUTIFUL, give it to me.

I don't even think I could have used it in a demolition derby...it was more just jokes him and i used to have..

But i agree, the car is beautiful...and the thing that gets me, is the interior is awesome..burgandy, cloth, wood trimmed dash, with big, easy to read guages...ill try to get a pic on friday...depends on how much stuff is infront/behind it in the barn, or if i can open the doors..
