It is probably too late already, but I wanted to
relate this story-
a friend told me about an auction at a tow
company here in the Seattle area.
A 1959 Plymouth was involved.
I did not have a phone # so i delayed action.
when I finally got the number, I called only to
learn the car had been sold to a wrecking yard.
I finally got down to see the car today...a 1959
Savoy 4 dr sedan.
It was positioned in line for the crusher. The
roof and passenger side were caved in. It was stacked on top of a Dodge van, and
was next to a Chev pickup, so I could not open the doors. The wheels and tires
are gone, and the tank was unmercifally drained by axe, or something
similar.
The car is a 318 w/
Powerflite, one barrel, w/air cleaner, no radiator, bench seats, lo-value radio,
factory heater delete, no PS or PB, yet with Deluxe steering
wheel?!
It had taillites and headlites, but all the chrome and
pot metal was bad...all glass was gone too.
Well, just felt bad to let it go, but there wasnt that much
left and I couldnt handle bringing the hulk home...
