The Twins... 120-130

Well, as I might have mentioned, my 1967 220 wagon is sitting in that garage waiting for my time and money. I think I should direct my efforts to the Green Sedan and the Blue wagon. I'm second owner of those two, while this new one has an uncertain provenance.

Still, I hate the thought of destroying a serviceable car, but truthfully, I do not need three.

I could maybe find someone local who'd be interested, but for the price I'd have to sell it for and for the percentage of my parts stash, I doubt I'd break even. Then I'd have fewer spares and none of the glass or panels should anything bad happen to my little 68...

Furthermore, these cars are so rare around here that it could be years before another one appears. I lucked here because Mario had to move very far on short notice. I don't see that happening again. As it stands I have to get most of my replacement parts from eBay or from the guys in Oregon and Pennsylvania.

Still... It's pretty dang solid and deserves more that being recycled for it's weight in steel by the alley leeches.

I don't suppose anyone in range of me would want to buy a stripped body and a perfectly good rear end... It is could be an excellent transplant recipient.
I plan on taking off most everything that fits a 67 or 68 Amazon.

Still... Hard to bring myself to do it...
