Gentlemen:

Thought it only fair to update anyone who cares or knows about that island of 444s, 544s, 1800s, and 220s in South Lake Tahoe, CA. Also warious Hudsons, Buicks, Studebakers, etc from the early 50's. These are some cars that appear horrendously neglected at best, downright abused at worst. They all have at least a $15k price tag.

Well, I crawled around underneath some of the 444/544s and discovered brand new stainless 2" or greater exhausts, repainted and probably rebuilt B18/B20 engines, all new and/or refurbished suspension and brakes; upgrades in some cases...

Some wolves in sheep's clothing up there. My favorite is the red '65 544 that someone climbed up the back and jumed on the roof until it's flat, then hopped down on the hood and fender. That one looked like it had the best of everything underneath.

Nobody there again to explain things, but keep an eye out, this guy may have some really nice cars before long.
Cheers,
-Sean
