      I've got a bunch of stories about an 89 Chevy Berretta. I chased a cow with it through a beanfield, dragged a tree down Main Street with a chain hooked to the back end of it, put a door on it that didn't have a seatbelt anymore, and then eventually drove it to the scrap yard and processed it in their parking lot. Plus there's s a few other fun little stories in there too. Let me know if you guys want to hear the full bit!!!

      I love you Ed but please find a different sponsor if you can. Everyone knows that BetterHelp is a scam and they don't do any work to Vet their "therapists" could be anyone that you're talking too. they also sell your information. your therapist is selling your information....
      Vinwiki has Great content! BetterHelp sponsorship makes that all look worse

    Just today bought me a 89 f-150 2wd short box with 54,000 actual proven miles out of a barn in ritzville WA for 600$ guy said hey there's a 5.0 with a tremec 5 speed up in the main shop thats been gone through and I never got around to putting it in this truck and my 12 year old daughter said oh dad ya better make the man an offer cause it's sound like it needs to go in my truck! The fella goes this is gonna be your truck? Yes sir my dad and I are gonna build it together like he did with my older sister, and before I could ask how much he said well young lady if you promise to keep your nose clean and take good care of it you can have the motor and transmission, she said yes sir and shook his hand. He wouldn't except any money I tried. We're headed to pick up some wheels and tires for it now and gonna start pulling old motor and trans tonight.

    I found my 77’ 280z along with a 280zx in a barn in Kansas. I drove by this barn for 15 years until one day this farm owners barn door was open. 60k original miles, absolutely zero rust. It was an auto cross car for 10 years until the owner put it away. $600 dollars, a bit of brake fluid and a battery and I drove it home on old fuel.

      I’m chatting to a guy locally who has a 260z 2+2 super samuri (Samurai was another company name in the UK - they converted them in period to a racing spec) under a tarp in his garden next to a Gordon-keeble. He keeps telling me he has promised them to a local scrap merchant who hasn’t collected them yet so they are not for sale. Glad to hear you managed to find a 280 somewhere

    I found my 1984 Corvette sitting in a garage that was rotting away in Southeast Louisiana. I had passed by this garage many times and had never seen inside of it, but it just so happened 1 day I pass by and the guy was digging through a toolbox and I saw the court vet under a tarp.
    It was someone dad is good friends with my mom.
    But had lost contact. Over the years.
    I introduced myself and when I said my last name. Yes, me if my parents were. These 2 people and I said yeah, and he was like I went to high school with them. How have they been? I got in contact with my parents. They came and saw him had a nice long chat. And they were wondering why I was over there. And I told them I was interested in the Corvette. I was 23 at the time and mom said you don't need a sports car. Anyway, I asked the guy. How much do you want for the Corvette? My mom to him, don't sell him the car. He needs to focus on being a good mechanic. At that point, the old man said I need some work done to a vehicle that I drive a lot. I'll trade you the corvette for labor. In the end, I swapped out the transmission in his 2002 f350 with parts he supplied and drove home with an '84 vette behind my 93 454SS 1500. Mom was pissed. The old man went for a ride with me after I got the car cleaned up and back together. It had been sitting for 22 years. I still talk to him. I still have the Corvette, and I still have my 93 454SS. Both the vette and the SS don't get driven much anymore as my 2000 f550 is my daily due to toolboxes, air compressor, and crane are imperative to do my job, but they're so mine nonetheless 15 years later. 1987 inspection tag and registration were still in the car which had 12,991miles on it when she rolled off the trailer into my garage.

    I love the old guy kicking ass on the race track like back in the day, my grandfather used to race cars on a airstrip that still exists today right after ww2 before he had to stop because he was racing the family car and if he blew up the engine they wouldnt have a car and the city finally stopped it but you dont hear stories like that anymore.

    That dukes #1 story is so conflicting. It was so perfect coming out of the woods. It is beautiful restored but damn not sure he would have done that had he seen that episode when he was a kid. Such a huge moment for the boys. I wonder if he kept the original panels or where they went? Trunk full of concrete? Just seeing that green juxtaposed to the orange in the doors was making me so excited. Whoever bought it should have been told no, it was just too valuable to make it a rebuilt car, so yeah I would vote ruined. It sounds more about it being all about the money and he didn't care which didn't help his case. Then rubbed it in our faces like well if you would have had 400 and been there you could have bought it, but I found it. OOF. Guess he became the boss hog didn't he.
