I've seen a yellow Thing down on rossville blvd at a wrecker lot. body looks good no top and their letting it just sit out without a cover. anybody know about this one? Dad tried to talk to them about it but they were adamant about that it wasn't for sale. I hate to see it sit there and rot.

Nick, I watched a '39 Lasalle (?) Limo rot to the ground in East Ridge a long time ago. I bugged them sell to me so often that they told me not to come back. They were going to restore it someday.  About 2 years later I was told it went to the crusher It did run. So sad :'( :'(

How long ago was that? I've seen that one and I thought it was for sale...

I work on the Southside so I might run by there one day and strike up a conversation if they'll let me.

Go for it, I'm afraid if dad goes down there again they might get mad. When he looked at it about 2 weeks ago he said the paint was bubbled in a couple of spots which may mean they did a bad paint job. But hey a little elbow grease can fix that right?

There was an orange one for sale on a back road in Chickamauga a few weeks ago.  I'll have a friend that lives close to it see if it's still there.

Seems like I was told it was around 6 grand . . . but I've slept since then.  If it's still there, I'll drive by after work tomorrow afternoon and check it out.

you do not have an 67-69 camaro or 69 chevelle you want to trade?

i will get with him, he wanted to trade one for the bug, but i have not had a chance to stop by his house

Interesting front and rear bumpers.  It appears to have the "Fiber Fab " wider rear fenders. I had a set of those on my '73 when I ran "Desert Dog" rear tire and rims. Also had a 4:86 ring and pinion plus a 1850cc stroker engine. A bear off the road.
   If this car looks as good as the photos might suggest, It might be a good deal. Look for patched up rust spots. Things love to rust.
