I had one with similar dirt once, the guy parked it in the back yard, every year it would wash out, the ground would get higher and the car would get lower, we barely got it out in one piece. As far as the value? It was matching numbers, one owner, really, had the original title! Sold for $14,000 to a guy in Poland, and it took two guys to bid it that high so that was their price, not my price.

I was at a junkyard a few years ago and come across a fairly solid looking Packard. I'd never sat in one before, so I walked up to it and opened the door only to be met with the hissing of a mama raccoon and surprised look on all the faces of the juvenile raccoons. Shut the door just as quickly as I opened it and walked away. Lol. Guess I should have knocked first.

Strangest thing I've ever seen was a whole ecosystem in one car. Open one door, found a live snake looking at me, opened another door, huge ant hill, and then under the hood, lots of mice. An ecosystem I say!

At least it wasn’t venomous. A friend in Texas recently found a rattler in her Miata.

Snakes are like wild mushrooms, some are fine, some are deadly, the variations are subtle, so I avoid all, just in case.

Check out RUSTY TUBS in Atlanta, Ga who sells 356 parts in any condition. Prices for 356's parts including clips are wild!

Must be an "older guy" thing.

"Young" punks like Unobtan are in it to make money.
