Just hauled this home today.  I guess you could call it a "barn find"  It a 57 T'Bird.  I think it has an interesting story.   A fellow I met through amateur radio asked me to come and take a look at a car that he had in his basement.  Back in '67 a guy wrecked this car on the PA turnpike.  It was towed to a local garage and the owner never came and got it.  So, the garage got the title for the car.  My friends dad then bought the car from the shop, towed it home and put it in his basement since 1968.  He had intended to   fix it but never did.  # years ago he died and passed his home down to his son.  His son, not being interested in cars new I messed around with old stuff and so here we are.  Its going to take a while to get it done but, I plan on doing a frame off resto.  I have my work cut out for me for sure.
