Yeah, there's a number of odd things about that car. In one picture it has a radio blank plate, in another it has an old Volvo radio rather casually slapped into the hole. The passenger side front door jam has a nasty scratch/dent'/gouge and a rust spot nearby. The engine sure looks grungier than I'd have expected it to be from only 80 miles of use. I guess it was just casually stuck somewhere in a garage for 40 years, and then brought back to life. As evidenced by the new battery (and missing battery hold down) and the generic fuel line.

Just bizarre, how does a car get ignored completely like that for 40 years? I guess it happens, there was that lady I saw at the Kansas City VCOA meet with something like 150 miles on an 1800ES.
