Expert Posts: 2474 Location: Dalveen, Queensland, Australia | The '56 De Soto... What is going on? Has, perhaps, the owner (at right) asked for a pic of the car with this pose of a Groucho lookalike lighting Groucho's cigar? | ||

Exner Expert 19,174 posts. Neil passed away 18 Sep 2015. You will be missed, Neil! Posts: 19146 Location: bishop, ca | Jim asks (on previous page) if this car is "restorable". Well, that depends on a lot of things, depending primarily upon where this wreck is located, its purchase price, the cost to get it to the owner's restoration shop, the shop's costs to restore it...and the market value of the restored car (which is to say: how rare/desirable is the subject car, as-is-now?). Is the car a 2-four-barrel model, or heavily optioned, unusual features etc? (il_570xN.522463971_aikz.jpg) Attachments ---------------- il_570xN.522463971_aikz.jpg (131KB - 197 downloads) | ||

If so, the Fair-Weather-PLY-VERT had survived for 9 years, so far. Wonder if it fully-survived? But, is that a 53 F-word parked next to it? Edited by d500neil 2014-08-10 3:30 PM | ||

Location: Parts Unknown | I had the awesome opportunity to eat at the "Nighthawk Cafe" a couple days ago. The ambiance was that of an old air raid shelter, but what a terrific breakfast ! Couldn't eat half of it, it was so big ! The place was full of old farmers talking about their dogs, who got a new truck, etc. and a few blow- thru-town bikers. I always seek out the Mom-n-Pop motels and diners when on the road and sometimes I am overwhelmingly surprised at how great they are. Later, we stopped at a Subway for lunch (at my brother's insistence) and it was tasteless (a mouth full of damp paper towels would have tasted near as good) and at almost NINE bucks for a #@! sandwich, it cost as much as the great breakfast. | ||

Location: Parts Unknown | Yet they usually have a line of blank-stare drones there waiting to pay full retail for a really dull sandwich ! Meanwhile, the guy with the great food shop across the street is struggling to keep the lights on ! There are times when I think Americans are the largest group of mindless drones ever assembled. | ||

Arnie Beswick was a Drag Racer and seems to have done well with the '56 D501 so decided to get a '57 D501 but found it was too front heavy and also destroyed the 3 Speed manual gearboxes when power shifting. http://www.carcraft.com/dragtimes/1420_arnie_beswick_drag_racings_c... | ||

Expert Posts: 2474 Location: Dalveen, Queensland, Australia | Originally posted by hemidenis not much changes... Ahhh... Montana... it shouldn't change, it's beautiful... But I can see a bunch of changes here. To my way of thinking, Butte has gone downhill. But there's enough uphills around it to keep it elevated. | ||
