found this Dodge starting to grow moss
« on: January 29, 2006 - 09:58:43 PM »
Stumbled onto this the other day. Not a E body, but still kinda cool lookin for a fin car. Looks like it hasn't moved in a long time. I sent a pic it to Cars in Barns.

Absolutely! I'd say the interior would be in pretty good nick.  :cheers:

I'm gonna cruise by there more often and try to catch the owner outside to talk to. I really don't want to walk onto his driveway and peek around. Heck, it could be ages before I catch him outside. Cause if I ring the doorbell and he turns a cold shoulder on me, there goes my chance.
So if this was yours, what would you do?

I'd drive by that way when ever your close.
Chances are good that you'll spot him or someone from that house. If not, grab it by the balls and go knock on the door......chances are someone else will do it first and walk away with the keys.  :-[

Fin cars are starting to grow on me with all the bling on them. Could you picture that car black? or Red and white?

Nice looking car you found. They are a rare breed and they look fast just sitting still. Looks like it would be a nice one to restore.

Good luck with it. I would doubt he gets a lot of inquiries about it, they aren't as popular as they once were.
