Hi Steven -
Welcome to the list. Regarding your 59 NYer story, I had the same thing
happen to me with a 58 Plymouth 2dr HT. The old lady sold it, even though
I told her I wanted it and sent her a deposit. ( This happened about 11
years ago.) These things have a way of working out, though. I'm willing
to bet that there was lots of bondo in the Chrysler, especially since you
said there was a huge hole in the fender. I'm assuming the hole was from
rust. Not a good sign, unless you're up to doing all that welding. Now you
can take your time and find the car of your dreams.
Since you live in Michigan, I was wondering if you've ever been to
Hillard's Scrapyard in Vestaburg, Michigan ? I was up there in August, but
only had time to drive by, since I was rushing to make my flight back to
CT.
