X2 Mike. Thankz for the special pic Mar. Lookz like my old Pal missed one. FYI, when he and his bride moved from Pennsylvania to Arkansas in the early '80s he took 104 carz with him and still had a stash of iron left behind and hidden. True story, lol Jer
 
holy crap! 104 cars?!?! that must have been a monumental effort to get them to Arkansas.

so you say there may be some hidden, eh?? time to get the prospecting hat on and start a-diggin'! lol
 
Actually it waz a wreckin' yard that he bought to hold all hiz stuff in Pennsylvania. Not sure how long he kept it after he moved west. He bought ah 60 acre mountain top in western Arkansas cut a single lane gravel road in and had (If I remember rite) four 40'X100' pole barnz erected and when the open car haulez started showing up he had to have the carz brought in one at ah time on wreckerz 'cuz the 8 car haulerz couldn't traverse the upz 'N downz and the curvez 'tween the rockz 'n treez. After that move he still had carz under the starz. I've seen the pix he took of the cement truckz backin' up 'bout ah half mile 'cuz they didn't have the "grunt" to go in forward when they poured the mud for the foundation for the home they built on that mountain top. One of the visitz we made out to hiz place he took use to ah "Water Hole" on the Oklahoma line (28 milez 'cuz hiz county waz ah dry county) where you could drink in Oklahoma and pee in Arkansas without leaving the building. The bar stoolz were all tree stumpz 'bout 4' tall and 15" round with heal notchez cut into 'um. I can't make this s##t up, fun timez, lmfao az I remember Jer

Mar did you see this '71 Ranchero? It popped up when I was watching, it looked pretty nice on TV and the wood grain looked hand painted. Just something different.

As a matter of fact, I did. 1 of 10 Rancheros with a 429 Super Cobra Jet. It looked mostly original, just needed some love and elbow grease and she would have made a fine driver. The wood grain looked to be an applique, like the wagon country squires.

Now that I think of it, It did not have a lot number attached to the windshield. *I just checked the pic I took, and it in fact it does not have a lot number assigned to it. Could have it been there just for show?
