Following up on leads for parts for my '57 Dodges and found these...
The white one is on property long abandon with no help from the neighbors as to who owns it.
The 2 tones owner has been collecting parts for a couple of yrs. He is now retired and ready to start this spring...

Kit car but I don't know what it is yet. It's still there over a week ago when I last went by it here in Polk County FL.

'69 MGB, you can tell by the reflector over the rear wheel, that was '69 only and not found on the '68 which was the first Mk 2 MGB, and '69 was last yr for the old style rear lenses... we've had several '68/69s and just sold our '70 2 yrs ago. The MGB unit body was one of the strongest of that era, especially for an open car, they were criticized for being too heavy at the time. Glad this nut case at least lived, maybe it knocked some sense into him?

Does that VW powered wonder come with its own disco ball and cocaine mirror ? Gawd, the
70's were great car years !

Joakim, the blue 1960 New Yorker convertible you posted further up was here in British Columbia, Canada last year, and sold on Ebay. Made it to Sweden already!!
The air cleaner snorkel is facing the wrong direction!! It should point toward the right front slightly or to the left front if you are looking at it from the front of the car.
There are locator tabs on the housing to mate with the carb.
This photo of the engine was downloaded from the Ebay auction here last year.

Well, I suppose the bright side is that you could buy just about any FL in great shape for little money in the 1970s!

Anyways, before the winter storm hit, I snapped this photo in a parking lot of a shopping plaza. It occurred to me how the streets
used to be littered with these Chevy pickups (in the South, anyways). It seemed every lot or every other driveway had a '60-66
C10 parked there. Now, it is a rare thing to see one, so rare I took a photo!

This one is probably a 64 or 66.

A 1964 Canadian built Valiant, which is a Dart with a Valiant clip bolted on. They were sold at both Dodge and Plymouth dealers, and not branded either a Plymouth or Dodge. Starting in 67 Canada got both Valiants and Darts.

This particular car was owned for years in the 90s and early 2000s by a private court-server, who used this for the business to serve documents.

Savoyplaza, you live in Macon? We have a house there funny i never have seen a forwardlook there...

Si Senor!
I live in north Macon, my shop is in Juliette.
There are a few FLs around town, most happen to be in my yard!

If you see one around 5:00am or 6:00pm, it's probably me going to or coming home from work!

Next time you come up, let me know and I'll show you my collection.
