Stingray Corvette - Was last rebuilt in 98, same owner has let it sit since then and it is dying a slow painful death....only drove it 100 miles after the rebuilt and parked it. he has had many upon many offers but keeps telling ppl it will be worth more later so why sell it now

Now get this.........he owns the Mechanic shop that it is parked at.

This has also told me that I will never let his shop ever work on any vehicles. I'm of the mind set that if your shop looks like trash then your work must be of the same quality.

Unknown early 40's car - been sitting in this guys front yard for 20+ yrs, he finally moved it to the back because he got tired of ppl asking.

Early 40's Ford truck - up till a couple of yrs ago I thought it could be salvage. Now I see it just a collection of rust. 6 months ago a tree branch fell from a storm and dropped through the hood and side fender. Even the glass, which is quite rare and valuable to ppl that restore cars is totally unusable.

Then you meet those guys that think their rust pile is the next Barrett Jackson car....

Agreed..friends dad has a 67 or 68 Camaro in his garage..body perfect original paint....collects dust! Reason for it sitting????,,,"i dont know something electrical''..Pisses me off its been sitting for 15 years!!!...also we had an old lady customer who used to come in for gas in her 70 Chevelle Vert! The thing was flawless...I asked her if she would wanna sell it,she then began to tell me of this guy who was following her around and kept honking at her and she was scared as hell,she thought the guy was about to mug her when she finally stopped he only wanted to ask her if she wanted to sell it! she said no,,,so the next time she came in for gas she came in with a for sale sign that was altered with a black sharpie that read ''NOT-for sale-please dont ask!!" ..i laughed my butt off, I read in the paper she died! Bummer...But i wonder if its for sale now?...Boo i know thats morbid..

Congratulations! Cute baby....She looks like shes dreaming '' Daddy`s Porsche will be mine at 16''

I know it's the picture itself and depth perception, but with your hand in the picture, those headers look like they are for a miniature car

Looking good.

Hey Kenneth, sorry for the late reply been raising our first little one and she has been taking up all of my time. Are you referring to the headers or the good badge?
