You're killing me.....

Just walked in the front door wishing that hurricane the southern boys are fighting would blow all this damn smoke away! Surrounded on all sides with forest fires it seems.

You suck, eh?

 

[65sporty]

That is clean, great score. What's next for it?

 

[Fratzog]

Whoa! Back up a minute. Where did this one come from and what is the back story? Looks amazing.

 

[polara71]

I'm glad a flipper didn't find it first, that's usually the way it works

 

[LocuMob]

I think the car went to the right garage.

 

[polara71]

His or mine would have been the right garage

I just stepped over the Polara I wasn't planning to buy another C-Body.
The Story is the original owner was a Lady and she brought the car brand new in Calgary in 1969 and always kept it in her Garage and looked after the car she had every 4tmls maintenance done oil change and all the other stuff.
She passed away 24 years ago and here grand son got the Polara inherited and stored the car in his garage until I picked it up.
It was a very sad moment when I picked the Polara he had tears in his eyes because the car was a part of the family, and all the memories on his grandmother.
I work as an Superintendent for a large construction company and all my
Co workers know that I like old car and they ask me sometimes if I'm interested to buy one , that's how I also ended up with my 70 Imperial

 

[CanCritter]

I do the same work. ..no one ever finds cars like that for me.

You have to drive your cars more often to work then they will come up to you that's how it usually works.
My guys and trades are disappointed when I show up at work with my Truck.

 

[polara71]

Those cars are not going to a job site.

I wear car shirts everyday, they know where my heads at.

This is the closest my cars been to the job....

And that was on a drive by on a Sunday

 

[Fratzog]

When I was working I was in the office and wouldn't even take mine into the parking lot. I've got too much time and effort invested to suffer through a door ding. Cruise nights are hazardous enough.

 

[polara71]

I am also concerned about the dirt and dust. Dust would get in places I can't clean
